Gardening - West Coast Seeds - Basil - Tomatoes - Nemophilia

Medusa was bred to have the appearance and flavour of heirloom tomatoes but with reduced cracking and cat-facing. Vigorous vines with good disease resistance produce large, juicy, 340g (12 oz) purple tomatoes with green shoulders. Expect a complex sweet/savoury flavour plus a hint of smokiness that black heirloom tomatoes are famous for. Medusa also boasts high resistance to Verticillium Wilt and intermediate resistance to Root Knot Nematodes and Late Blight.

Sweet Basil seeds produce vigorous plants that grow big, mid-green leaves all summer long. Keep picking the growing tips and the 2 pairs of leaves below them for the kitchen. More branches sprout more leaves. Sweet basil is a large-leaved Italian type that is glorious for pesto. Plant Sweet Basil seeds several times for a continuous supply until frost. Grow one on a warm and sunny windowsill through the winter, or try it as microgreens for a tasty and aromatic garnish. This basil makes excellent pesto, and it's extremely easy to grow. Just supply good drainage and lots of sunshine.
