Cherry Belle Radish
|
The Radish Cherry Belle, 'Raphanus sativus', has a mild flavor and solid white flesh that makes the Cherry Belle very popular. This spring radish grows best during the cool periods of spring and fall. The Cherry Belle is great if eaten fresh, in salads, or in sandwiches. It can be grown inside during the winter. The flower pods are edible and they will grow in the shade. Harvest when the radish is 1 inch in diameter. Bigger radishes get pithy and hot.

Aunt Rubys German Green Tomato
The Tomato Pole Aunt Ruby's German Green, 'Lycopersicon lycopersicum', is an old Heirloom variety. It is not the prettiest tomato, but it is spicy and sweet and very delicious. We think Aunt Ruby's German Green is the best flavored green tomato. The tomatoes are a large, beefsteak type with 12 to 16 ounce fruits. Tomatoes need at least 1 inch of water a week. Soak to depth of 6 to 10 inches when watering. They need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. Prune the intermediate tomatoes in order to keep a single stem.

Honey & Cream Corn
The Corn Honey & Cream, 'Zea mays var rugosa', is excellent for small gardens and short growing seasons. If we had to choose two vegetables that were much better home grown than bought from a store, corn and tomatoes would be our choice. Honey and Cream allows gardeners with small plots or gardeners in northern climates to enjoy this wonderful flavor. Harvest the ears when the husks are dark green and the silks are brown but not brittle. Corn is usually ready 3 weeks after silks appear.
