Yankee Hardy Blend Lettuce, Organic

Default Title

🥗 Black-Seeded Simpson Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) The 150-Year King of the Heirloom Garden If there is a "hall of fame" for garden vegetables, Black-Seeded Simpson holds a permanent place at the very top. For over a century and a half, this has been the most popular loose-leaf lettuce in America, and for good reason. Known for its large, ruffled, light emerald-green leaves and its incredibly fast growth, it offers a sweet, tender crunch that modern supermarket varieties simply cannot replicate. It is the ultimate "reliable" lettuce—thriving in a variety of climates and providing a heavy harvest when other greens are still waking up. 📜 Historical Heritage: A Civil War Era Classic The Black-Seeded Simpson is one of the oldest and most successful heirlooms in North American history. It was officially introduced to the public around 1850 and was famously championed by the legendary seedsman Peter Henderson in the mid-to-late 19th century. Historically, it became a staple of the American homestead during and after the Civil War because of its "cut-and-come-again" nature, allowing families to harvest fresh greens from a single patch for months. It was bred to be exceptionally hardy, becoming the standard by which all other leaf lettuces were measured for over 150 years. The Simpson Family Tree: While the Black-Seeded variety is the famous standard, it was actually preceded by the White-Seeded Simpson, an even older 18th-century heirloom. The White-Seeded variety is remarkably similar in flavor and texture, though the Black-Seeded version was eventually favored by 19th-century gardeners for its superior heat resistance and slightly larger, more ruffled frame. We have not been able to find seds for White-Simpson so if you know a source, send it our way please. ✨ Product Highlights Lightning Fast Growth: One of the quickest lettuces to reach maturity, often ready for baby-leaf harvest in just 21 days. Heat Tolerant: Unlike many lettuces that bolt (go to seed) at the first hint of summer, Black-Seeded Simpson is remarkably slow to bolt and stays sweet even as temperatures rise. "Cut-and-Come-Again": Designed for multiple harvests. Snip the outer leaves, and the plant will continue to produce fresh center growth all season. Delicate Texture: Features "crinkled" leaves that are exceptionally tender and succulent, with a mild, never-bitter flavor. Vibrant Color: The bright, light-green leaves add a fresh, "neon" pop to garden beds and salad bowls. 🛠️ Quick Growth Profile Feature Specifications Type Heirloom Loose-leaf Days to Maturity 21 (Baby) / 45 (Full Size) Color Light Emerald Green Sun Requirement Full Sun to Partial Shade Growth Habit Upright, Ruffled Mounds Texture Crisp and Tender 🌱 How to Grow Black-Seeded Simpson 1. Sowing the Seeds:Lettuce seeds are tiny and require a little light to germinate. When: Sow in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked. For a continuous harvest, sow a new batch every 2 weeks until early summer. Depth: Sow seeds 1/8 inch deep. Just a light dusting of soil is all they need. Germination: Expect sprouts in 7–10 days. 2. The Perfect Location:This lettuce thrives in rich, well-draining soil with plenty of organic matter. While it loves the sun, it is the perfect candidate for Partial Shade, especially if you want to keep harvesting well into the warmer months of June and July. 3. Maintenance: Spacing: If you want full-sized mounds, thin seedlings to 8–10 inches apart. For baby greens, you can leave them crowded at 2 inches apart. Watering: Lettuce is composed mostly of water! Keep the soil consistently moist. Drought is the number one cause of bitterness in home-grown lettuce. Harvesting: You can begin harvesting individual leaves once they reach 3 inches in height. Always harvest in the cool of the morning for the crispest texture. 🥗 Culinary Inspiration Because of its ruffled texture, Black-Seeded Simpson is the king of "dressing-catchers"—its crinkles hold onto vinaigrettes perfectly. It is the essential lettuce for a classic Wilted Lettuce Salad (tossed with warm bacon dressing) or as a fresh, crunchy topping for summer burgers and sandwiches. Garden Tip: If you are short on space, this is the best lettuce for containers and window boxes. Its shallow root system and mounding habit make it thrive in just a few inches of soil! 🥗🧺✨

White Ice Lavender

Renee's Garden - Fernleaf looks distinctively different than other garden lavenders. It has deeply lobed fern-like, silvery leaves that give the foliage a handsome lacy appearance and long stems topped with graceful blue-violet trident-form flowers. Easily grown from seed, this first-year flowering perennial has a bushy habit and blooms all summer long. Fernleaf foliage is highly aromatic with a hint of oregano and highly attractive to butterflies. Great for borders, beds, and containers. Characteristics: Renee's Garden Exclusive Perennial Butterfly Herbs Violent and blue flowers Approx 45 seeds Instructions - In early spring, sow lavender seeds 1 inch apart in a container of seed starting mix. Cover very lightly and keep at 60 to 70°F (16-21°C). Keep evenly moist but not soggy until seedlings slowly emerge over 14 days, providing a good light source. When seedlings have several sets of leaves, transplant 2 inches apart into deeper containers.

Renee's Garden - This lovely old variety, a true English Spencer sweet pea, combines graceful form, beautiful color, and delicious subtle perfume. It’s difficult to do justice to their lovely color except to describe it as a shade in between fresh-cut watermelon and ripe rosy peaches. These alluring flowers are borne on long stems on strong vigorous vines. When you gather a bouquet of these entrancing blossoms, they will make all your senses dance in delight! Characteristics: Renee's Garden Exclusive Annual Long stems Colored blossoms Delicious perfume Approx 35-40 seeds Instructions - Sweet peas must have well-drained soil, so dig deeply and enrich with aged manure or compost before sowing seeds.

Strawberry Spinach: The Edible Heirloom Curiosity 🍓🍃 The Seed Savers Exchange - (Chenopodium capitatum) (aka Strawberry Blite) Grown in Europe for centuries. Very showy compact 18" plants are grown for their nutritious triangular toothed leaves and tender shoots, used in salads or steamed. Shiny red mulberry-like fruits are edible and can be added to salads or used to make dyes. Becoming scarce. Self-seeding annual, 90 days. Step back in time with Strawberry Spinach (Chenopodium capitatum), one of the most visually stunning and conversation-starting plants you can grow. Neither a true strawberry nor a true spinach, this dual-purpose heirloom offers succulent, nutritious greens and a bounty of jewel-like red berries that look like they belong in a fairy tale. 🏛️ A Botanical Time Traveler Also known as "Beetberry" or "Blite," Strawberry Spinach is a native of North America but became a beloved staple in European monastery gardens in the 1600s. Ancient Roots: It was widely grown in Europe for centuries before modern spinach varieties took over. Natural Dye: Historically, the juice from the brilliant red berries was so concentrated it was used by indigenous peoples and early settlers as a natural dye for cloth, basketry, and even as a primitive ink. A Renaissance Rediscovery: After nearly disappearing from commercial catalogs in the 20th century, it has seen a massive resurgence among heirloom enthusiasts who value "edible landscapes." ✨ Why You’ll Love Growing It Two-in-One Harvest: You get tender, nutty leaves for your salads and bright red berries for snacking or garnishing. Striking Beauty: As the plant matures, it produces clusters of bright crimson fruits along the stems, creating a dramatic contrast against the jagged green foliage. Heat Tolerant: Unlike traditional spinach, which "bolts" (goes to seed) the moment the sun gets hot, Strawberry Spinach is much more resilient in summer weather. Self-Seeding Wonder: Once you plant it, you’ll likely have it forever! It drops its seeds readily, providing a "volunteer" crop every spring. 🌿 Product Specifications Feature Details Common Name Strawberry Spinach / Beetberry Botanical Name Chenopodium capitatum Family Amaranthaceae (Related to Beets and Quinoa) Plant Type Annual Mature Height 12 – 18 Inches Sun Requirement Full Sun to Partial Shade Days to Maturity 45 Days (Leaves) / 90 Days (Berries) 🍽️ Culinary Profile: Leaves & Berries Flavor Note: Do not expect the berries to taste like a store-bought strawberry! They have a very mild, subtle sweetness with a refreshing, earthy undertone similar to a beet or a mulberry. The Greens: Harvest the young, arrow-shaped leaves early in the season. They taste like a slightly nuttier, richer version of spinach and are excellent raw or sautéed with garlic. The Berries: The berries are most flavorful when they are a deep, dark red. They add a stunning pop of color to fruit salads, can be used to top desserts, or tossed into a summer spinach salad for a monochromatic look. 📖 Growing & Care Tips Direct Sow: Like its cousin the beet, Strawberry Spinach has a taproot and prefers to be sown directly into the garden as soon as the soil can be worked in spring. Light to Germinate: Press the small seeds into the soil but barely cover them; they need a bit of light to wake up. Spacing: Thin plants to 6–10 inches apart. If left unthinned, they will stay small but still produce fruit. Support: When the plant is loaded with berries, the stems can become heavy. You can let them "flop" for a groundcover look, or provide a small low trellis to keep the berries off the soil. Add a dash of 17th-century magic to your garden beds.

Strawberry Spinach, 1600's Heirloom

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.
