Forget-Me-Not - Victoria Pink Dwarf
The Forget-Me-Not Victoria Pink, 'Myosotis sylvatica compacta', is a superior strain of one of the earliest spring bloomers. Not many plants bloom well in the shade, but Victoria Pink prefers it. The Victoria Pink Forget-Me-Not has numerous 1/3 inch flowers that are petite, pink star-shaped and with a white center. The flowers rise gracefully above neat, low growing mounds. They bloom in early spring for 2 to 4 weeks. The Victoria Pink prefers partial sun to partial shade. The soil should be light, rich, and well drained. They should be kept evenly moist and they should not dry out. Plant in early spring or in or late summer/early fall. The Forget-Me-Nots are excellent for woodland settings and for an early splash of color in moist shady areas. ... details
Tomato - Amish Paste The Tomato Pole Amish Paste, 'Lycopersicon lycopersicum', is one of those old, wonderfully flavored paste tomato varieties from years past. Amish Paste has few seeds, solid flesh, and is large for a paste tomato. If you are making a tomato sauce or canning tomatoes, do not use a regular tomato! Amish Paste is the tomato to use. Amish Paste cooks down to a thick, creamy tomato sauce but also has a surprisingly sweet flavor that can be used for slicing also. Amish Paste tomatoes are acorn shaped, deep red fruits with thick flesh. Amish Paste is an intermediate tomato which means they continue to grow indefinitely until frost. Lycopersicon lycopersicum (Hybrid) Prune the intermediate tomatoes in order to keep a single stem. |
