PLANTS AND SEEDLINGS
Rosemary Seedlings
Menu Group: Plants and Seeds
Section: Herb Plants
Category: Rosemary
.
Vendor: Rasmussen Farm
.
Rosemary is a wonderful herb to use with meats, potatoes, breads, all sorts of things. Perennial but not hardy: keep it potted or plant it out for the summer and dig it up to take in for the winter.
Gorizia: this is the same variety we kept alive in our greenhouse for years, but these seedlings were grown from plugs started by Richter's Herbs in Ontario, Canada.

Category: Squash - Summer
Description: Patty pan, Y-Star
Vendor: Rasmussen Farm
.
Patty pan, Benning's Green Tint: : 55 days, open pollinated, Fedco seed. Tasty pale green scalloped round summer squash. Fedco says: "Also known as Farr’s White Bush, developed by Charles N. Farr and introduced in 1914 by F.W. Bolgiano & Co. of Washington, DC. Farr selected for the uniform scallops and the greenish-cream coloring in the younger stages of the fruits. Emily’s favorite patty pan by far for its “gorgeous graceful shape.” Rated by many as the best-tasting summer squash, especially if picked small at 2–3" diameter when they are especially fine-textured and tender." www.fedcoseeds.com/seeds/bennings-green-tint-patty-pan-squash-1590

Tomato seedlings
Menu Group: Plants and Seeds
Section: Vegetable Starts
Category: Tomatoes - Cherry
.
Vendor: Rasmussen Farm
.
Gardener's Delight red cherry tomato: (68 days) Open-pollinated. Indeterminate.
Fedco says: "Also known as Sugar Lump, and of German origin, but not an heirloom as we once believed. Introduced by Ernst Benary in 1950-51. A parent of the famous hybrid Sweet 100. Produces the kind of rich sweet deep red 1"+ cherries that you will want to pop into your mouth in profusion while you bask in the garden sunshine. The large plants need staking and will bear till frost. The fruits taste so good that we overlook their annoying tendency to crack."
Spoon - tiny red cherry: Tasty and adorable - can fit several tomatoes on a spoon. Entertain the kids picking these toy-sized tomatoes!
Jaune Flamme slicing tomato: Lovely & tasty, smallish, yellow-orange slicing tomatoes
