Beet 'Red Ace'
ID: #642012
Description
Red Ace is vigorous, disease resistant variety that produces a round, deep red, tender root with incredibly sweet flesh. They can be sown in succession every 2 weeks in from mid-spring to early summer for an extended harvest. As a bonus, the foliage can be eaten as a leafy green. Red Ace has good heat tolerance and resists bolting, extending your harvest. Beets can be harvested at any size, but you will get the best flavour if you pull them as soon as they reach full-size, which is around 3". Beets are a cool season crop, which means they do most of their growing in spring and fall and tend to grow poorly (or not at all) during the summer heat. Beets grow best in full sun with sandy, moist (but not soggy), well-drained soil. Adding organic matter to your soil will help loosen it up if it is heavy and compacted.

Jade Plant
Contact for price
Jade Plant is a popular, easy-to-grow succulent that is great for beginners and experienced houseplant owners. It features thick, succulent green leaves and, once mature, can produce small white flowers if given enough light. As it grows, it develops a thick, woody trunk and can be trained into a bonsai specimen. Jade grows best in bright, direct to indirect light, though it should be slowly acclimated to direct sunlight. Plant it in a small pot with well-draining cactus/succulent soil and water only when the soil has fully dried out; remember to reduce your watering during winter.

The Variegated Heartleaf Hoya features thick, heart-shaped green foliage with creamy-yellow margins. With good light and time, it can produce a round cluster of fragrant white-to-pink flowers with pink centers. Hoyas are vining plants and will trail over the sides of pots or can be trained to grow up a trellis or other support. Hoyas grow best in bright, indirect light with a well-draining potting mix. Hoyas with thicker leaves should be watered only once the soil has mostly dried out, while those with thinner leaves can be watered once the top few inches of soil have dried. We have found that the Heartleaf Hoyas are sensitive to overwatering and should have their soil fully dried out before being watered again.
