Renee's Garden - This spellbinding nasturtium offers unusual variegated, vining foliage and brilliant, spurred blossoms in exotic and unusual shades of pumpkin, painted peachy-rose, ruby, gold, and pale lemon. The single scented flowers shine out from among lily-pad-shaped leaves splashed with patterns of emerald green and creamy white. The effect is a trailing jungle of gemstones as Amazon Jewel meanders gracefully to cover bare spots, adorn fences, or cascade from containers, filling the garden with vibrant color. Characteristics: Renee's Garden Exclusive Annual Gemstone colors Approx 35-40 seeds Instructions - Sow seeds in spring once all danger of frost is over in full sun (or part shade in hot climates). Nasturtiums need no added fertilizer in most soils. Poke seeds into well-worked soil about 1 inch deep and 3 to 4 inches apart. Press soil firmly over the seeds and keep moist. When seedlings are large enough to handle, thin 10 inches apart so plants will have ample room to grow. Plant in: April - June for cold winters or March - July for mild winters Full sun or partial shade Plant 1/4 inch deep Plant 3-4 inches apart 9-12 inches days to germinate Mature Height: 4-6 feet Firefly Farm & Mercantile may substitute suppliers due to availability.

🌿 Za’atar Oregano (Origanum syriacum) The Soul of Middle Eastern Flavor Experience the authentic, intoxicating aroma of the Levant with Za’atar Oregano (or sometimes spelled as zaatar). Also known as Syrian Oregano or Lebanese Oregano, this ancient herb is the primary ingredient in the legendary Middle Eastern spice blend of the same name. It offers a sophisticated "three-in-one" flavor profile—a bold, savory combination of Greek Oregano, Sweet Marjoram, and Thyme, finished with a subtle, spicy kick. With its beautiful, fuzzy silver-green leaves and rugged resilience, it is a must-have for any herb gardener or gourmet chef. 📜 Historical Heritage & The "Hyssop" Mystery Origanum syriacum is an herb of biblical proportions. Native to the rocky hillsides of Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and Israel, many scholars believe this is the true "Hyssop" mentioned in the Old Testament, used for thousands of years in purification rituals. In the Middle East, it is more than just a plant—it is a symbol of health and heritage. Historically, it has been wild-harvested for centuries, but as demand for the spice blend grew, it moved into the "Kitchen Gardens" of the Mediterranean. It is the heart of the Manakish (flatbread) tradition, where the herb is mixed with olive oil and sumac to create a breakfast staple that has fueled the region for generations. To grow Za’atar is to invite one of the world's most ancient and revered culinary traditions into your home. ✨ Product Highlights The "Spice Blend" Hero: The essential base for authentic Za’atar seasoning (typically mixed with sumac, sesame seeds, and salt). Unique Texture: Features soft, velvety, silver-gray leaves that are as ornamental as they are delicious. Drought-Tolerant Champion: Highly adapted to hot, dry climates; once established, it requires very little water. Pollinator Magnet: Produces spikes of delicate white-to-pale-pink flowers that are a favorite for honeybees and butterflies. Versatile Perennial: A hardy perennial in warmer zones (8–10) and a fast-growing, productive annual in cooler climates. 🛠️ Quick Growth Profile Feature Specifications Scientific Name Origanum syriacum Plant Type Perennial Herb (Hardy in Zones 8–10) Height 18 to 24 inches Sun Requirement Full Sun (8+ hours) Flavor Profile Oregano, Thyme, and Marjoram blend Days to Maturity 80–90 Days Growth Habit Upright / Woody-based shrub 🌱 How to Grow Za’atar Oregano 1. Sowing the Seeds (Light is Essential):Za’atar seeds are tiny and require light to germinate. Indoors: Start 8–10 weeks before the last frost. Surface-sow the seeds onto a moist starting mix and press them in lightly. Do not cover with soil. Outdoors: Direct sow in late spring only after the soil has thoroughly warmed. Germination: Expect sprouts in 10–21 days. Keep the tray in a warm, bright spot. 2. The Perfect Location:Za’atar demands Full Sun and exceptional drainage. It thrives in "lean," rocky, or sandy soils. If your soil is heavy clay, we highly recommend growing Za’atar in a raised bed or a terra cotta pot to prevent "wet feet," which can cause root rot. 3. Maintenance: Spacing: Thin or transplant seedlings to 12–18 inches apart. Watering: Water at the base of the plant. Avoid wetting the "fuzzy" leaves excessively. Let the soil dry out completely between waterings. Harvesting: For the best flavor, harvest the stems just before the plant flowers. This is when the essential oils are at their peak. 🍳 Culinary Inspiration: The Za’atar Blend To make your own garden-fresh Za’atar blend: Dry your Za’atar Oregano leaves and crumble them into a bowl. Add toasted sesame seeds, ground sumac, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix with high-quality olive oil and use as a dip for warm pita bread or as a rub for roasted chicken and vegetables. Garden Tip: Because of its silver, fuzzy leaves, Za’atar Oregano is highly resistant to deer and rabbits. Its strong, savory scent acts as a natural deterrent, making it a great "guard plant" for the edges of your garden. 🌿🫓🍋

Za'atar Oregano, Middle Eastern Heirloom

Firefly Farm Naturally Raised 100 Seeds

Firefly Farm 100 Organic Seeds

Renee's Garden - These lovely climbing nasturtiums have charming soft primrose yellow flowers and bright green foliage, much different from the usual bold and brassy color mix. They grow easily in any well-drained soil and will gracefully disguise neglected areas or twine along a fence, trellis, or wall, providing a summer arbor of pretty lily-pad-shaped leaves and long-spurred flowers. As a wonderful bonus, both the bright flowers and leaves are deliciously edible with a spicy watercress flavor. Characteristics: Heirloom Selection Hummingbird favorites Pollinators & Beneficials Annual vine Spring/summer/fall bloom Frost tender Instructions - To start outdoors, sow seeds in spring once all danger of frost is over in full sun (or part shade in hot climates). Nasturtiums need no added fertilizer in most soils. Poke seeds into well-worked soil about 1 inch deep and 3 to 4 inches apart. Press the soil firmly over the seeds and keep them moist. When seedlings are large enough to handle, thin 10 inches apart so plants will have ample room to grow. To start early indoors, sow 2 seeds each in individual 4-inch pots of well-drained seed starting mix 3 weeks before the last expected frost date. Cover 1 inch deep. Provide a strong light source. When seedlings have several sets of leaves, pinch out the weaker seedling leaving 1 per pot. After outdoor temperatures are evenly above 50°F (10°C) gradually acclimate to outdoor conditions. Transplant seedlings into the garden 10 to 12 inches apart in full sun. Climbing nasturtiums are very reliable and easy to grow in any well-drained soil. Help them to twine up their supports, then they’ll climb easily and bloom nonstop. Do not let plants dry out during the blooming season. You can also plant Moonlight to tumble along the ground. Plant in April-June for cold winters; March-July for mild winters Full sun or partial shade Sow seeds 3-4" apart; 1" deep 7-14 days to germinate Mature height: 4-6 feet Firefly Farm & Mercantile may substitute suppliers due to availability.

Moonlight Climbing Nasturtium (Climbing)

Renee's Garden - These split-petal vining nasturtiums date from the 19th century. Their unique petals, shaped like little flames, stand out in a kaleidoscope of colors against ivy-shaped leaves. Carefree Phoenix blooms absolutely nonstop, covering the foliage with both bright and pastel blossoms in crimson-red, rich gold, fiery orange, warm cream and soft peach, many brushed with burnished copper at the petal base. Phoenix flowers are edible and especially gorgeous scattered on salads or used as edible garnishes for savory dishes. Characteristics: Heirloom Selective Hummingbird favorites Pollinators & Beneficials Great in containers Annual Spring/summer/fall bloom Frost tender Edible Instructions - To start outdoors, sow seeds in spring once all danger of frost is over in full sun (or part shade in hot climates). Nasturtiums need no added fertilizer in most soils. Poke seeds into well-worked soil about 1 inch deep and 3 to 4 inches apart. Press the soil firmly over the seeds and keep them moist. When seedlings are large enough to handle, thin to stand 10 inches apart, or 6 to 8 inches apart if training seedlings up vertical supports. To start early indoors, sow 2 seeds each in individual 4-inch pots of well-drained seed starting mix 3 weeks before the last expected frost date. Cover 1 inch deep. Provide a strong light source. When seedlings have several sets of leaves, pinch out the weaker seedling leaving 1 seedling per pot. When the weather is evenly in the 50°F (10°C) range, gradually acclimate to outdoor conditions. Transplant as above in full sun. Climbing nasturtiums are easy to grow in any well-drained soil. You’ll need to train young plants onto their supports with loose ties, then they’ll climb easily and bloom non-stop. Do not let plants dry out during the blooming season. If aphids become a problem, wash them off with a strong spray of water or spray with a non-toxic Safer’s Soap solution. Phoenix’s bright confetti-like blossoms are true summer beacons for hungry hummingbirds.

Back in stock Renee's Garden - Spitfire’s brilliant, scarlet-red blossoms shine out amongst trailing lily pad shaped green foliage and their nectar is adored by hovering hummingbirds. Train them up short trellises or tripods for a cascade of bright blossoms or use the abundant, fiery-colored spurred flowers and their handsome leaves as a perfect way to disguise neglected areas, soften fences or walls, or tumble from big containers. Both flowers and leaves are edible with a flavor reminiscent of watercress with a pinch of honey. Characteristics: Heirloom Selective Vibrant Red and Orange Hummingbird favorites Pollinators & Beneficials Annual vine Spring/summer/fall bloom Frost tender Instructions - To start outdoors, sow seeds in spring once all danger of frost is over in full sun (or part shade in hot climates). Nasturtiums need no added fertilizer in most soils. Poke seeds into well-worked soil about 1 inch deep and 3 to 4 inches apart. Press the soil firmly over the seeds and keep them moist. When seedlings are large enough to handle, thin 10 inches apart so plants will have ample room to grow. To start early indoors, sow 2 seeds each in individual 4-inch pots of well-drained seed starting mix 3 weeks before the last expected frost date. Cover 1 inch deep. Provide a strong light source. When seedlings have several sets of leaves, pinch out the weaker seedling leaving 1 per pot. After outdoor temperatures are evenly above 50°F (10°C) gradually acclimate to outdoor conditions. Transplant seedlings into the garden 10 to 12 inches apart in full sun. Climbing nasturtiums are very reliable and easy to grow in any well-drained soil. Help them to twine up their supports, then they’ll climb easily and bloom nonstop. Do not let plants dry out during the blooming season. You can also plant Moonlight to tumble along the ground. Plant in April-June for cold winters; March-July for mild winters Full sun or partial shade Sow seeds 3-4" apart; 1" deep 7-14 days to germinate Mature height: 4-6 feet Firefly Farm & Mercantile may substitute suppliers due to availability.

Spitfire Climbing Nasturtium (Climbing)

🧅 Valencia Onion (Spanish Sweet) The Giant of the Mediterranean If you are looking for an onion that combines impressive size with a mild, sugary flavor, the Valencia Onion (often called the "Sweet Spanish") is the gold standard. Known for producing massive, globe-shaped bulbs that can easily reach a pound or more, this heirloom is a staple for gardeners who want "hamburger-sized" slices and a crunch that won't overpower the palate. 📜 Historical Heritage & Origin As the name suggests, this heirloom variety traces its ancestry to the fertile coastal plains of Valencia, Spain. For centuries, Spanish farmers selected for onions that were larger and sweeter than the pungent, long-storing "cooking onions" of Northern Europe. The Valencia type was introduced to the United States in the late 19th century and quickly became the parent stock for many "Spanish Sweet" varieties we see today. It was prized by homesteaders because it bridged the gap between different climates; while many onions are strictly "short-day" (Southern) or "long-day" (Northern), the Valencia is a versatile Intermediate-day onion. This means it is highly adaptable and can be grown successfully in almost any region of the country. Historical Note:First introduced to American gardeners in the late 1880s, the Valencia Onion was a horticultural sensation. In 1894, famed seedsman Peter Henderson noted that these were the same "magnificent" sweet onions once found only at elite city fruit stands, imported at great cost from Spain. By bringing these seeds to the home gardener, the Valencia variety allowed everyone to grow "hamburger-sized" onions that were previously a luxury. They also went by the names The Prizetaker, Spanish King, Giant Yellow Spanish and Denia Onions. ✨ Product Highlights Mild & Sweet: Very low pungency, making it the perfect choice for eating raw on sandwiches, in salads, or as blooming onions. Colossal Size: With proper spacing and fertility, these bulbs can grow to be 4–6 inches in diameter. Beautiful Aesthetics: Features thin, papery skins in a shimmering straw-yellow or golden-bronze hue. Adaptable: One of the most reliable "all-region" onions available to the home gardener. 🛠️ Quick Growth Profile Feature Specifications Plant Type Annual / Biennial (Heirloom) Onion Type Intermediate-day (Adaptable to most latitudes) Bulb Size 4 to 6 inches (up to 1 lb+) Days to Maturity 110–120 Days Sun Requirement Full Sun (8+ hours) Storage Potential Short to Medium (Best used within 3–4 months) 🌱 How to Grow Valencia Onions 1. Starting from Seed:Onions have a long runway. Start seeds indoors 10–12 weeks before the last frost. Sow thinly in flats and keep the tops trimmed to about 3 inches to encourage strong root development before transplanting. 2. Transplanting:Move seedlings to the garden as soon as the soil can be worked in early spring. They are frost-hardy! Space plants 4–6 inches apart. If you want truly giant onions, give them the full 6 inches of space to expand. 3. Soil & Water: The "Heavy Feeder": Onions require rich soil. Amend your bed with plenty of compost or a nitrogen-rich organic fertilizer at planting. Consistent Moisture: Onions have shallow roots. Do not let the soil dry out completely, or the bulbs will stop growing and become more pungent. 4. Weed Control:Onions do not compete well with weeds. Keep the area around your Valencia onions meticulously clean. Use mulch (like straw) to suppress weeds and retain moisture. 5. Harvesting & Curing: The Signal: When the green tops turn yellow and fall over, the onions are ready. The Cure: Pull the bulbs and let them dry in a shaded, airy spot (like a porch or garage) for 2–3 weeks until the necks are completely dry and the outer skins are papery. Garden Tip: For the absolute sweetest flavor, harvest your Valencia onions "green" (before the skins dry) and eat them fresh from the garden. While they don't store as long as pungent storage onions, their flavor is unparalleled in mid-summer! 🍔

Key Features Flavor Profile: Exceptionally sweet and aromatic with subtle clove notes; the true taste of Italy. Plant Habits: Vigorous grower reaching 18-24 inches tall and wide; bushy habit when pinched back. Leaves: Large (up to 4 inches), bright green, and glossy—ideal for fresh use or drying. Harvest: Continuous picking from midsummer; one plant yields pounds of leaves! Growing Tips Light & Soil: Full sun (6+ hours daily), rich, well-drained soil with pH 6.0-7.0. Planting: Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost or direct sow after danger of frost. Space 12 inches apart. Care: Water consistently (keep moist, not soggy); fertilize lightly every 4 weeks. Pinch flower buds to prolong leaf production. Zones: Annual in zones 2-11; grows fast in warm weather (ideal temps 70-85°F). Pests: Deer-resistant; watch for aphids (hose off or use neem oil). Culinary Stars Must-Try: Blend into pesto, caprese salads, pizza, pasta, or infused oils. Pro Tip: Harvest in the morning for peak flavor—freeze extras in ice cube trays with olive oil! Seeds germinate in 7-14 days (85%+ rate). Perfect for beginners and pros alike—stock up for balcony pots, herb gardens, or market sales! 🚀 "The backbone of Mediterranean cuisine—your customers will love growing their own Genovese!" Ready to add to your shop? Pair with tomato or pepper seeds for combo packs! 🌱 Hailing from the sun-kissed hills of Italy's Liguria region! 🌍🍝 Genovese Sweet Basil gets its name from Genoa (Genova), the coastal city famous for its vibrant markets and culinary heritage. This heirloom variety has been cultivated there for centuries, becoming the gold standard for authentic Italian cuisine. Historical Roots Italian Selection: While sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum) originated in India and Southeast Asia over 5,000 years ago (spreading via ancient trade routes to the Mediterranean), the 'Genovese' cultivar was specifically developed and perfected in Italy. Ligurian Legacy: By the 19th century (and likely earlier), it was the preferred strain around Genoa. Farmers selected for its large leaves, intense aroma, and pest resistance—ideal for the region's pesto tradition. Pesto Fame: In 2007, the EU granted PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) status to Pesto alla Genovese, mandating Genovese basil from Liguria for the real deal. 📜 Fun Fact "Introduced to Europe by Romans, but Genoa made it legendary—today, it's grown worldwide but shines brightest in Italian soil!"
