Morning Glory - Choice Mix
The Morning Glory Choice Blend, 'Tpomoea tricolor', is a showy cheery, colorful mixture of large morning glory flowers that will brighten any garden. They are called morning glory because blooms open in the cool of the morning. During the fall, flowers open all day. The flowers of the Choice Blend Morning Glory are 2 to 4 inches wide and are in the colors of blue, lavender, pink, red, and white. They will bloom from summer until fall frost. The Choice Blend Morning Glory does not like to dry out, so water frequently. Morning glories seem to bloom earlier and with more blooms when they are constricted to a pot. Plant in the spring after the last average frost date. Plants started too early are less vigorous than those started later. This excellent vine will cover fences and trellises, grow as ground cover, or hang in large baskets or pots. ... get more information
Pepper - Sweet - Pimiento The Pepper Sweet Pimiento, 'Capsicum annuum', is a sweet, juicy, aromatic, scarlet pepper with very mild flavor. The Pimiento is excellent for stuffing or pickling and fresh in salads. This pepper provides the familiar red "plug" in green olives. Pimiento peppers are excellent pickled and delicious when used for stuffed appetizers. For delightful crunch and beautiful color, add chopped fresh pimientos to salads such as pasta, potato, chicken, tuna or egg salad. Pimientos are green, smooth, heart-shaped, thick walled and they turn bright red at maturity. Transplant outside in the spring 3 to 4 weeks after last frost date. Note: To get a jump on the season transplant outside, use a walls-of-water or some black plastic to maintain and increase temperatures. Plant in average garden soil with sufficient organic matter. Peppers use quite a bit of water but prefer to be watered deeply and not too often. |
