antsinmypants's Plant List: Greens

A note from antsinmypants
Feel free to ask about anything in my list you may be interested in. I'm always looking to trade. Just because something isn't in my want list doesn't necessarily mean I don't want it & just because something I have isn't marked for trade doesn't mean it isn't available for trade. I stay busy so don't always get around to updating.

Aurora Mixed Orach
Purchased - bc - 10/2021

"A delicious mix of radiant colors, all the more beautiful because the plants reach a nice size—very well suited to edible landscaping beds. Colors include red, gold, green, pink, carmine, and pure purple. Who says greens have to be green? This Frank Morton/Wild Garden Seed original is just plain fun and tasty!" - Baker Creek

Orach does well in any well-drained garden soil. Tolerant of both hot and cold weather, it is best planted early spring through midsummer. Sow seeds 1-2" apart, covering 1/4", in rows spaced 18-30" apart. Thin to 6-10" apart.

A cool-season hardy annual that prefers full sun.
Cast seeds directly in the garden or start seeds indoors 4 weeks before planting date.
Prefers cool conditions during germination below 70 degrees.
Lightly cover seed with 1/8" of soil;
Allow 7-14 days to germinate. ...
