Also known as Orca drying bean. This unusual bi-coloured Mexican heirloom has a creamy texture when cooked, and it looks great on the plate. The plants are relatively compact bushes, growing to only 45cm (18”) tall. The beans are easy to grow and fun to harvest. Plant some Calypso bean seeds in the organic vegetable garden and enjoy the dried beans in soups and stews all winter long. The open pollinated seeds are easy to harvest and dry for planting the following year.
Heirloom Italian frying pepper with incredibly sweet flavour both fresh and cooked. Jimmy Nardello yields an abundance of long, slender, often curled fruit that mature to a dark red colour and hold late in the season when most varieties have faded. Grow Jimmy Nardello once and you will see why it has gained notoriety. Be sure to fry some up to top pizzas, pasta, and eggs!
