Delphinium - Pacific Giant Mix
The Delphinium Pacific Giant Blend, 'Delphinium elatum', is one of the most breathtaking plants you can grow in your garden. The Pacific Giant Blend is statuesque and spectacular in color. The tall and closely packed, large, well formed blossoms appear in colors of pink, violet, and many shades of blue. The Delphinium blooms from late spring into early summer and they bloom for 3 to 6 weeks. The Pacific Giant Delphinium prefers full sun and rich, moist, well drained soil. When flowers begin to fade , cut back the stalks and fertilize immediately. A second set of spikes may occur and bloom in late summer or early fall. Plant in the spring after the last average frost date or as late as 2 months before the first fall frost. Pacific Giants make great cut flowers and a background for flower beds. ... details
Radish - White Icicle The Radish White Icicle, 'Raphanus sativus', is an attractive snow white, 5" - 6" long, tapered radish with a mild flavor. It is easy to grow and is quite early for a summer radish. White Icicle can produce a crop when spring radishes won't. This mild flavored radish is great eaten fresh, in salads, or in sandwiches. The flower tops are edible and the green tops can also be used in salads. Plant in late spring. Successive planting every 10 days will prolong the radish harvest. Radishes prefer loose, light soil with a fair amount of organic material. Harvest when the radish is 5 inches long. Bigger radishes get pithy and hot. |
