Cascadia produces 7 cm medium-green pods on strong 60 cm plants. Cascadia peas are resistant to the enation virus and powdery mildew, so they are good candidates for later sowings and fall harvest. Sow as late as July and early August, and you may get a crop as late as October. -

Hybrid-The very straight, tapered roots of Deep Purple carrot grow 17-20cm long.

The tops are strong for easy harvests, and the storage potential is great. This is a fine fall harvest carrot that is good for juicing and it looks amazing in salads. The sweet, smooth-skinned roots were a staff favourite from our field trials. This is a high yielding, very uniform variety which is perfect for any gardener. -

This annual Mexican herb has a pungent aroma, spear-shaped, deeply toothed leaves, and green flowers. It is also known as Wormseed, American Wormseed, Mexican Tea or Herba Sancti Mariae. Epazote's (eh-pah-ZOH-teh) fragrance is strong and pungent. It has been compared to citrus, petroleum, savory, mint, or camphor. It smells pretty strong, but we have found that it does add a wonderful depth of flavor to a pot of beans! With its strong taste and aroma, not everyone takes to it right away, but used as a spice, it adds a wonderful rustic layer of flavor to many Mexican and Latin American dishes, giving them an extra dimension of flavor that just can’t be replicated with any other herb – very similar to the “umami” flavors of fermented Asian ingredients. Epazote leaves are used for their pungent flavor and aroma to season soup, corn, beans, and shellfish in Mexico. It is used in beans to prevent flatulence. It is also brewed for "Jesuit Tea" but the herb's main use is to expel intestinal worms from humans and animals. Oil of chenopodium is derived from this plan.

Hardy annual. Dainty, fully double blooms in deepest maroon, almost black, edged in brilliant white. The margins of the petals are heavily frilled, and the overall effect is one of great dignity and refinement, yet stunning beauty. The 2-3 cm blooms are sweetly fragrant. Makes a fine cut flower but really shines in a massed planting. Compact plants, the flowers are held above the grass-like foliage, reaching about a foot in height.
