Vegetable Seeds For The Garden

All the seeds from the catalogs that I ordered two months ago are all here.  These are seeds I used and had succesfully for many years.



PEAS - Green Arrow wonderful tasting peas.  High yielder with long pods on 28" vines. Frezees well.  Resistant to downy mildew and Fusarium wilt.  I have tried many variety of peas, this is the best one ever.  It is in the greenhouse thriving in flats until ready to be trasplanted in March




PEPPERS - As pepper slow in germinating, I started in flats early last month in the greenhouse.

Baby Bell, hybrid 71 days.  Glossy brilliantly colorful, crisp and sweet with few seeds.  They are wonderful for stir fry.  Miniature 1.5" to 2.5" bell peppers cover the 36" plants for extended harvest.  I was not disappointed with this variety, harvested lots of it.

Gypsy - hybrid 70 days.  Wedge shaped with 3" to 5" long fruits ripen from yellow green to bright red.  Sweet crunchy, and delicious. Vigorous and productive. Tobacco Mosaic resistant.  Freezes well too.

Sweet Banana - Heirloom, 72 days.  My favorite, easy to grow and productive. Tappered 6" long , colorful and attractive as they ripen from light green to orange and red.  Excellent for stir fry, salad and very productive.  Harvested a full basket.  Freezes well too.

Papri-k Sweet Red Paprika - Organic, long pods 8" turn to brilliant crimson when ripe.  Sturdy 30" plants are productive.  Sweet fragrant and flavorful.

King of the North - 68 days.  Bell pepper with prolific yields of large blocky slightly tapering , thick walled, dark green fruits that mature to deep red.  Sturdy, cold tolerant plants.  Delicious for roasting.
