Seeds -The Foundation for a Abundant Future
Red Mulberry Seeds
Red Mulberry is a species mulberry known for its persistence in southern and central North America. It often hybridizes. This one comes from known progeny on my farm originally from Missouri. It produces very uniform seedlings plus has additional hardiness.
Briana Apricot Pits
This Siberian apricot produces small fruit that has a very strong flavored fruit like a concentrated dried apricot. The fruits are produced on thick spurs on the branches. It can be grown from seed bypassing the normal grafting done in apricots. It flowers early yet often has crops even at my farm.
Northern American Holly
American Holly is the most robust evergreen broadleaf tree indigenous to North America. It is rarely cultivated today. From seed, it is easy to grow once the dormancy is overcome. I began my plantings over 20 years ago to produce holly seed and find the most vigorous forest like trees with exceptional vigor.
Wild Corn-Teosinte
Ancient form of corn crossed with heirloom blue sweet corn using Northern Highland teosinte. Population grown with minimal selection. Wild grass grain crop.
A Rose By Any Other Name
Every wild species of rose produces hips. This little fruit package surrounding the seeds is a vitamin C rich pome along with an oil crop from the seeds. Few have tried to cultivate the hip rose and harness that power. Big Hip rose is a selection meant exactly for this all from seed.
Perennial Beans
Hybrid lima bean and thicket bean seed selections for creating the new perennial protein crops. Contains 4 packets of hybrid and species thicket beans enough for a 15 ft. trellis.
