Chinese Lantern (Physalis alkekengi)  There is high value for this dried species in fall displays. In Japan, the seeds are used during the Bon Festival as offerings to guide the souls of the deceased. This plant spreads underground by rhizomes and should be contained in certain situations. Physalis is a close relative of the Cape Gooseberry but is not cultivated as a food crop. The fruit is tasteless and it should be noted that the unripe fruit and leaves are toxic if enough is ingested.

Picolino Organic cucumber seeds are CERTIFIED ORGANIC! Picolino is a fine example of a parthenocarpic type cucumber: It produces only female flowers, so the vines are really productive. And the fruits are seedless unless they are cross pollinated with another variety. They don't need pollination, so they're well suited to greenhouse growing. The tasty, uniform little fruits are 10-12cm (4-5") long with thin skins and appealing texture. This variety has hybrid resistance to Cucumber Mosaic Virus (CMV), Cucumber Vein Yellows Virus (CVYV), powdery mildew, scab, and target leaf spot. Picolino is sold by seed count, not by weight.

CERTIFIED ORGANIC. Glacier Organic are among the earliest maturing of early season tomatoes. The productive little plants are compact and well suited to containers and balcony growing. Glacier's 'saladette' fruits are small at just 5cm (2") in diameter, but they are very sweet, with a superior flavour to some other early maturing varieties. The stout plants grow to only 60-75cm (24-30") tall, and bear most of their fruit in a concentrated set. The plants are relatively cold tolerant and perform well in short season northern gardens.

C. pepo. A new semi-bush spaghetti squash variety with bright yellow skin, and superior interior quality. The strands of flesh are fine and tasty. Pinnacle spaghetti squash seeds can be grown more densely in the field for higher yields. Plants are early maturing with large, oval fruits 18cm (7") long by 13cm (5") in diameter. Fruits average 1.5kg (3 lbs) each. No spaghetti squash will grow more compactly than Pinnacle. Sunflowers make an excellent companion plant for squash because they bring pollinators into the field from far and wide. You'll have fewer aborted fruits and better overall pollination and production by interplanting squash and sunflowers.

Matures in 85 days. (Hybrid seeds)
