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
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!
i will be planting them tgis spring and i can't wait, i have heard how good they are, co i have been telling everyone that comes to buy my chicken eggs about them, and the first thing they ask if are the seeds from the same company you use, and i tell them only them they are the best
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.
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.
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+
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.
I am no professional tomato grower, in years past I have not had great success with growing larger - beefsteak type tomatoes. I grew these for the first time this year and they were fantastic. I have never had so many tomatoes and I am still picking them off the plants going into October (Zone 7). They were quite tasty and worked well with just about everything we made them with from BLT's to stewed tomatoes to tomato soup. The plants grew quite large and early in the season one stapped at the base in a strong wind. I took it, placed it in water for a week or so and then replanted it. It is still giving me tomatoes. Highly recommended.
Bravo cabbages are growing but not ready for eating.I am so far impressed with Rohrer seed company .I am a year round gardener and plant to order seeds in January.
I will be planting these peas Spring 2025. They were a great and healthy pesticide free bargain and arrived promptly. Thank you. I’m sure I will enjoy fresh peas next summer!
Once planted the seed germinated within a week and flowers bloomed in about 3 weeks. My honey bees foraged on the flowers for another 2 to 3 weeks. Grew exactly as hoped. Great seed. My honey now has a darker color and a slightly robust flavor due to the mixing of buckwheat with the other natural flowers. Very happy with the outcome.
