Zinnia - Cactus Flower Mix
They make great cut and dried flowers and look excellent in mass plantings. Plant in the late spring, 2 weeks after the last average frost date. They have put together a special blend of very superior cactus flowered zinnias. Zinnia Cactus Flowers require rich, deep, well drained soils. The Giant Fantasy bloom continually from early summer through fall until first frost. The blend includes Cherry Time, with shades of cherry cerise and spiraea red, and Lilac Time with its beautiful shades of purple, and finally Snow Time, a dramatic white flower. Keep them well watered, but not soggy. Mix a high phosphorous, low nitrogen fertilizer in with the soil. The Zinnia Cactus Flower Giant Fantasy, 'Zinnia elegans (Hybrid)', has absolutely huge, eye-catching 5 to 6 inch blooms that look spectacular in bouquets and in the garden. No larger Zinnia flowers are available. ... details
Tomato - Black Krim 'Lycopersicon Lycopersicum', is an early, rich flavored old heirloom from the Crimean peninsula of Russia. Black Krim sets well in the heat and is a heavy producer. It is a "novelty" that does not sacrifice taste. Black Krim produces good sized, black, beefsteak-sized tomatoes with a rich, earthy, almost smoky flavor. It is the most reliable of the black tomatoes. Tomatoes are generally started inside. Prune the intermediate tomatoes in order to keep a single stem. |
