Sweet & Zingy Taste Treat

Chosen for its truly excellent flavor and striking appearance, Green Zebra is hard to beat for salads and salsa.  The fruits are generally smallish, about 3 oz, but plants produce good yields.  Bred in Redmond, Washington in the early 80s, Green Zebra is destined to be a future heirloom.  Must try!

The now legendary “Mortgage Lifter” tomato was brought into being in the early 1940s by an auto mechanic named MC "Radiator Charlie" Byles.  Charlie developed the tomato by cross-breeding four of the largest-fruited tomatoes he could find.  The offspring turned out to be so good that Charlie was able to sell the young tomato plants for $1 each (in the 1940s) – and to sell enough of the plants to pay off the mortgage on his West Virginia home.  These are big, meaty tomatoes, which can weigh as much as 4 lbs.  Very productive and fairly disease resistant – well worth a try.

Deer Resistant

Hooded chartreuse flowers in early Summer, similar to Jack-in-the-Pulpit.  Into the Fall, bright orange-red berries appear on stalks that last for months.  The arrow-shaped foliage becomes veined and marbled, adding further interest, which can persist throughout the Winter, even in snow!  A great specimen or accent plant and a good companion planted amongst hostas and astilbes.  Arum italicum also makes an excellent and interesting groundcover, but can become invasive in some areas.  Part to moderate shade, enjoying moist conditions.  Height, 10-15".

The branches are often used in arrangements and of course brings the aroma of Eucalyptus! The greyish blue-green leaves are circular when young and resemble silver dollars. Trees can grow to 20 or 30 feet in height and have an interesting, irregular form. Part to full sun, evergreen.

White Hot Habanero is definitely worth trying. With a hotness level of 410,000 Scovilles, you too can experience the delightful sensation of having the back of your head blown off. Just kidding (sort of). These novel peppers make a killer white salsa or can be used as you would other habaneros.
