NARCISSUS ‘RIJNVELD’S EARLY SENSATION’ | I think this yellow trumpet narcissus is very special. I had it on the sale in 2019 because it is advertised to bloom so early that it might bloom in the snow. Of course, last year we didn’t have any snow. However, when it did bloom it was such an intense yellow color I couldn’t take my eyes off it. It tolerates cold and has a long blooming period. Plant where it gets full sun or partial shade with good drainage. Fragrant. 14” height. Deer and rodent resistant. 1 bag of 6 bulbs is $6.50 2 BAGS AVAILABLE |
GARLIC – CALIFORNIA SOFTNECK WHITE | Softneck garlic is the easiest to grow and has better storage quality. In the mid-Atlantic region they should be planted from mid October to mid November in a sunny spot with good fertile soil that has a pH of 6.5-7. Use some mulch to protect them in the winter and pull it back when they start to emerge. They will grow to a height of 14”-16”. The skins are papery and the cloves are creamy white. Hint: plant the largest cloves and eat the rest! Do not plant store bought garlic as it may have been treated. Deer resistant. 1 bag of 6 bulbs is $8.501 BAG AVAILABLE |
