Seed Savers Exchange Organic Packet

(Organic Italian Heirloom) Introduced to SSE by Ann Fuller of Indiana. She received the seed from a man who brought it to the U.S. in 1987 from Sicily where his family had grown it many years. Anne said its slices look like red-petaled flowers (rosso means “red”). Striking crayfish red costoluta (ribbed) fruits weigh up to 6 ounces. Firm pithy flesh is perfect for making tomato sauce or paste. Thin skin bruises easily. Determinate. 70-90 days from transplant (approx. 25 seeds/pkt)

This is the second year of purchasing seeds from Rohrer. We had such good luck the first year, we knew we had to go back. Tried other companies and had horrible luck! .

Awesome germination!!!

Astia Container Zucchini

This zucchini plant germinated faster than anything else I have planted😊 I am sooo impressed thus far. I have absolutely no experience with growing anything until about a month ago so when this zucchini plant popped out of the rockwool at record speed, I was overjoyed. I am doing the wet paper towel in the baggie soaks to help with germinating so maybe that helped.

Black Coral Zucchini Squash (15 seeds) Container Collection

I planted this variety in my raised bed garden following a cover crop of mature triticale. It produced consistently throughout the summer and I even had two plants survive and continue setting fruit until mid September. I harvested the last mature zucchini in September and it is still sitting on my kitchen counter in early February without showing signs of rotting (it's now become my experiment to see how long it lasts). The others I harvested also had very good "shelf life". I had very little leaf mold issues with this variety during the growing season.

Love this variety

Baby F1 Hybrid Cauliflower (15 seeds), Container Collection

I purchased the seeds almost two years ago and still use them. I plant two seeds at a time to stagger the harvest, and both seeds germinate (knock on wood). The plants have been grown under the grow lights in my basement. Need to re-order.

Roma VF Tomato Seeds

They grew really well and we harvested more than anticipated. They didn't get real big as we figured that was because our area didn't receive much rain last summer. We did water them but not quite the same as rain water

Love these beans

Dr. Martin Pole Lima Bean Seeds

Grow these every year. Large sprawling plants, large delicious beans. Take a while to ripen and can be difficult to germinate, but so worth it. 5-6 plants are plenty for the two us for fresh beans and a winters worth of frozen beans. We don't dry them, don't seem to have a long enough growing season (in s Carolina ) for drying on the vine (probably because we're anxious to eat the earliest ones)! Following the growing instruction pdf on this page is highly recommended to increase germination. This is the only place I've ever found these for sale.

Gum Drop Hybrid Black Cherry Tomato Seeds

Still in love with this variety. Grown in 6B with most of the Summer in the mid to low 90s and a lot of humidity. Some unavoidable cracking issues with the heat and rain, but very little loss. No disease or issues with pests. Still highly recommend this variety. Makes an amazing salsa, though seed heavy.

Delicious and fun to grow!

Aunt Molly's Ground Cherry

Central Valley - Northern California: We didn't know what to expect and had a blast with growing, harvesting, and giving away ground cherry plants. They germinated really well, we had more starts than we had space. We had some friends put them in the ground and others in pots on their deck, the ground cherry did great regardless. The fruit flavor is pungent, tropical, almost like a pineapple-esque tomato. Prolific and such a change of pace in the garden, 10/10 recommend!

Beautiful flower and color

Received the seeds very quickly and winter sowed. I typically plant the blue but this pink is so pretty. Definitely buying more this year. Love that so many seeds are in the packet.

Beautiful long lasting flowers

Tall Mixed Colors Globe Amaranth (Gomphrena) Seeds

I've never gompherma before so did not know what to expect. The germination rate was fair but the flowers plants are large and blooming is prolific. It is mid November and the plant is still blooming. (Zone 8a VA). And the flowers are great for cutting and arrangements. I particularly love the purple ones.

Lots and lots of delicious patty pan squash from these!

Early White-scalloped Bush Squash Seeds

These produced like bonkers! I only planted two of these, and those two plants were the earliest to on-target maturity despite the unusually cold start of the season. Every couple of days I had more squash ready, and I had more than enough squash for me and to share with others for the summer. They did well in 90 to 100+ degree weather with consistent watering. I think these would be good for a market garden. Taste is delightful, especially sliced and sautéed in a little oil with a bit of herbs and salt. Would buy these again. A+

Easy to grow, great to eat

Kai Kai F1 Hybrid Squash Seeds

I planted a large semi-attended pumpkin patch with a variety of types on some brushy ground outside my normal garden, without any mounding or recommended plant spacing. Tilled in leaf mould, and some phosphate and potassium rich fertilizer. Planted with beans for nitrogen. These survived a record drought, powdery mildew, and vine borer infestation without any difficulty. All the other vareties died due to pests and poor conditions by september. Slow to flower and seem to only take off after the summer heat really sets in, but they're still producing flowers and actively trying to set fruit in November. Held their own against mile a minute vines and porcelainberry without weeding. Some of these were planted in July and still managed to produce. Fantastic eating, probably the best squash I've ever had. I don't see any reason to plant any other kind of squash. It tastes good and I don't know how to **** it. Five stars.
