(Replaces Red Volantes, as we were unable to get seed this season). Red russian is a siberian-type kale, and has very pretty flat, serrated leaves with red veins. More tender than regular curly kales, red russian is excellent in salads.
A stunning mixture of yellow, orange, red and variegated marigolds. Plant them around the garden to kill nematodes and repel white flies, but avoid planting near beans. These grow well in pots, window boxes, and other containers. Will bloom right until frost if deadheaded.

A very drought tolerant variety with enormous, edible, flat blooms. Technically pansies are a perennial, but they are mostly grown in our climate as a cold hardy annual. Grow them in pots, window boxes, hanging baskets, or as mass plantings in the garden.
This is a biennial herb grown as an annual, although it is quite cold hardy. It’s large flat leaves are reputed to have a better flavour than many of the curly varieties.

A beautiful plant that not only attracts pollinators, but also yields tender 12” long green beans. You’ll need to support this runner bean, either on trellising or stakes, as it tends to sprawl. Develops pretty deep red flowers. It’s fun to grow with children .
Here’s a perennial herb that does well in both full sun in partial shade. It’s leaves are very lemony, and make a flavourful addition to salads. Also delicious cooked with fish.

If your tomatoes keep getting wiped out by late blight, here’s a variety for you! Mountain merit is a late blight resistant variety that produces medium to large beefsteak type tomatoes.

This is the best heirloom tomato we know of for growing in pots! The plants only grow up to about 1-2 ft tall (hence ‘tiny’), and are just loaded with bright red mini cherry tomatoes about 1in in diameter. They also ripen earlier than most other heirloom varieties at around 55 days from transplanting. No trellising/ staking required- although they can still benefit from cages. Expect alot of the fruit to ripen at the same time.
If you want sandwich sized tomatoes, but don’t want to bother trellising, then this is the one for you! These determinate plants (read bushy rather than viney) will produce nice round red beefsteak tomatoes. .. .And you can cage them if you want to, but they’ll do just fine without too! Grow in full sun, in fertile, well drained soil.
Another one of our favourites! This heirloom produces plenty of deep purple fruit which are resistant to cracking. The tomatoes are about 1/2 oz, and have an incredible sweet, complex flavour.
It’s got an indeterminate growing habit, so you’ll need to trellis/stake or cage it. Expect ripe tomatoes around 65 days after transplanting. Instead of having 1 short harvest window, they produce over several months- as long as the plant is healthy.

An heirloom Italian variety (can you tell by the name?) which bears large, sandwich sized deep red tomatoes. Excellent flavour, with more meatiness than other varieties.
