August In The Trial Garden

All our many zinnias are at peak bloom and looking fabulous! New for 2018 Intro 'Happy Birthday Mix' is a cheerful blend of luscious, fully double red and white blossoms just makes you want to celebrate!

One of our trial zinnias is a real standout: 'Mazurkia,’ is a striking, pretty bicolor that has been blooming for well over a month already and is a true bee and butterfly magnet.

Winter squash are maturing: our 5 trial plants of baby personal sized spaghetti squash are producing enough for the entire town!

Also in trial is compact and productive ‘Festival’ winter squash, which looks like an acorn squash in party dress! Later this fall, when skins toughen and vines die back, we harvest and enjoy tasting them.

It’s tomato time! We are growing several Renee's Garden favorites, to monitor the quality of the varieties in our packets and take photos for our new website.

‘Rainbow’s End,’ our colorful heirloom trio of varieties whose luscious flavors cover the entire tomato taste spectrum. Cute little ‘Red and Yellow Pear’ perfectly sized for snacks in the garden!
