Growing Tips:
Start seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost. Maintain a germination temperature of 21 to 24 °C (70 to 75 °F). Harden off seedlings and transplant them into well-drained soil in full sun after the risk of frost has passed. Harvest fruits when they fall to the ground, their husks becoming dry and beige.

The availability of our seeds varies depending on seasonal availability, production schedules and supplier inventory. Certain varieties may only be offered for a limited time based on their natural growth cycle, sowing period or available stock. These product pages are designed to help and inspire gardeners in choosing the right seeds for vegetable gardens, flower beds, pollinator gardens, container growing, naturalization projects and sustainable outdoor spaces.
