ANNUAL VEGETABLES
We start our seedlings at the end of winter and they grow in a cold greenhouse. The varieties, whose seeds need heat to germinate, are put in our heated nurseries and then transplanted to be resistant when they are planted outside in your garden.
Do not forget that some plants such as tomatoes / eggplants / peppers / sweet potatoes etc are fragile to frost.
ANNUAL VEGETABLE PLANTS –
Still no F1!
Tomatoes – We produce about thirty different varieties. Like all our plants, we choose only old varieties or more recent reproducible varieties such as 'Green Zebra' tomatoes. You can, therefore, produce your own seeds from the fruits of our plants.
Do not hesitate to contact us to participate in the workshops 'produce your seeds' in autumn.
All tomato plants are 'indeterminate' unless mentioned in the description.
