Assorted Colors

Large, fuzzy, cucumber-scented leaves and vivid blue flowers attract bees all summer long. Usually grown for the bees and flowers, young leaves can be cooked like spinach or used in salads. Also known as the star flower because of the arrangement of its petals, the flowers have a light cucumber flavour and will stun with their vivid blue petals. A dramatic use is to make ice cubes with the petals frozen into them and drop into cold drinks. Borage seeds contain oils with the highest concentration (20% to 30%) of the fatty acid GLA, even higher than Evening Primrose. Altogether a versatile, attractive and useful herb, add starry blue flowers to salads, drinks, berry desserts for visual appeal. Borage may self sow. It is attractive to bumblebees that must buzz at a certain resonance to release a jet of pollen.

Deliciously intense flavour, a berry explosion! The infusion is a beautiful rich burgundy colour, with a bright berry flavour.

Boro organic beet seeds are very, very sweet and CERTIFIED ORGANIC! Boro is probably the sweetest beet variety we have encountered. The medium red roots have smooth skins and can be harvested any stage between 8-15cm (3-6”) in diameter. The strong tops grow back quickly from selective picking. Boro seeds are organic film-coated for smoother passage through sowing equipment and better visibility in the soil.

These seeds are coated with an inert, organically certified layer which helps to minimize clumping in storage and seed sowing machines. The coating is approved by organic certifiers in Canada, the US, EU, and Japan.

Boston Fern  is a classic and popular fern species prized for its lush, feathery fronds and graceful arching growth habit.

Light Requirement: Boston Fern thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight, as this can scorch its delicate fronds. Variegation may become less pronounced in low light.

Watering Requirement: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water Boston Fern thoroughly when the top inch (2.5 cm) of the soil feels dry to the touch. Mist the foliage regularly to increase humidity and prevent dehydration, especially in dry indoor environments.

Mature Size: Boston Fern typically grows to a height and width of 1 to 3 feet (30 to 90 cm), forming a dense, bushy clump of fronds. It can spread via rhizomes, gradually expanding its size over time.

The Philodendron Brasil is a vibrant and popular cultivar with heart-shaped leaves showcasing a striking mix of green and yellow hues, creating a visually appealing and dynamic indoor plant.

Light Requirement: Thriving in bright, indirect light, place the Philodendron Brasil in a location with filtered sunlight or partial shade. It can tolerate lower light conditions but benefits from exposure to moderate to bright light for optimal growth and coloration.

Watering Requirement: Allow the soil to partially dry between waterings, and water thoroughly. The Philodendron Brasil prefers slightly moist but well-draining soil. Be cautious not to overwater to prevent root issues.

Mature Height: With a climbing or trailing habit, the Philodendron Brasil can reach varying lengths, making it suitable for hanging baskets or climbing supports. Regular pruning helps control its size and promotes a bushy appearance.

Great for eating fresh or freezing. Heat loving variety that is fast maturing and also displays cold vigor. Excellent adaptability and holding ability. High dome, tight beads.

Bull's Blood beet seeds produce baby greens in 35 days, or wait 50-60 days for beetroot. This is the classic choice for salad and micro-green growers. The beautiful dark red, smooth leaves have a particularly pleasant flavour. Harvested as baby greens, they look spectacular in salad mixes. If the leaves are not harvested, the plants produce uniform, round, tasty, red beetroots. The deep red colour of both the leaves and root are thought to contain high levels of nutrients and antioxidants, which qualifies Bull's Blood organic beet seeds as a super-food.

C. maxima. Burgess Buttercup squash seeds were first introduced by the Burgess Seed Company in Illinois in 1932. Since then, this reliable heirloom has been producing small, 1.5kg (3 lb) turban shaped fruits with dark green skins and the unmistakable navel or dome at the blossom end. The golden orange flesh inside each fruit is sweet and finely textured, never watery. The thin skins are extremely hard, but that is key for long term storage. These popular squashes won't last right through winter the way a hubbard or delicata might, but you should bring one to Christmas dinner, and impress your friends and family.

We love the flavour and delicate texture of the leaves for lettuce wraps! Buttercrunch butterhead lettuce seeds are a Bibb type lettuce that forms a tight little rosette of soft, dark-green, upward-facing leaves surrounding a tender, pale centre. The small hearts don't become bitter in hot weather. Later plantings stand well into fall and make good growth in spring cold frames. Buttercrunch lettuce is a good candidate for growing all winter if you can provide cloche or greenhouse protection, or even a simple cold frame. Sow some extra early indoors in February for transplanting to the cold frame in March.

Button ferns require medium to bright indirect light. They can also tolerate lower-light conditions as long as natural light is present, such as from a north-facing window. Keep button ferns out of direct sunlight, which can burn the leaves.

Button ferns thrive with moisture, and their soil should never dry out completely. Water when the top of the soil is just beginning to look dry.
