Bean - Broad bean Red Seeded - 150RG1B

Bean - Cherokee Trail of Tears - 42RW3
Between 1838 and 1839 the Cherokee people of the United States were forced to march across the Smoky Mountains to Oklahoma. This winter death march is known as the Trail of Tears as over 4,000 people died making the trip.
In 1977 a member of Seed Savers Exchange named Dr. John Wyche from Hugo, Oklahoma, USA donated seeds to there collection. It is thought that his Cherokee ancestors carried this heirloom bean with them on the Trail of Tears.
Beans were domesticated in the Americas thousands of years ago and serve as a protein in the diet of humans and animals.Growing this bean takes about 55 days to produce a purple podded green bean and 90 days to dry beans. This is a vigorous climber that we enjoy very much as a fresh green bean and have found to be highly productive.

Egyptian walking tree onions
Breeding work on the onion is currently being done, the Egyptian Walking tree onion is a F1 clone which is a cross between the Walsh and a standard brown onion, through bulbil removal and hand pollination 13 seeds were produced in 2015, from those 13 only 5 seedlings germinated, one of those later died. During that summer the four remaining plants grew and divided given me 23 new base onions, these were then replanted out separately and its hoped they will produce more seed. The goal is to develop a open pollinate walking onion that is grown from seed and not bulbils
Epazote - 95RW29
Various native peoples in the American and Mexican West today drink epazote tea or eat the plant to facilitate childbirth and ease painful menstruation as well as to expel worms and relieve gastrointestinal disorders (some of which might be brought on by the worms).

La Ratte X TPS - 129RW73A
The tubers were donated by Julian Twiss who lives in a district prone to the pest insect psyllid, Bactericera cockerelli, In Julian's garden he had had a corner that became overgrown, that in previous years had grown a large number of varieties, it was only a TPS clone that was able to handle growing in what is a swamp corner in winter, bone dry in summer, in long grass and having to battle psyllid attack.
For those potato growers who live in high psyllid numbers areas, you maybe interested in growing La Ratte X from TPS?, the aim would be to select for seedlings that show some degree of tolerance, by saving those tubers next step is growing your own TPS again and grow another generation and so on, the idea is by selecting the most tolerant in each generation, the number of seedlings with that trait will increase.
You never know, someone may develop a variety that could become quite valuable.
Price for this seed is lower because germination rates are lower
Leek - Perennial Leek - 93RW38
Best sown in spring forming clumps by late summer/autumn, if left in the ground through the following winter the clumps will form a mass of corns meaning the perennial leek will become permanent and difficult to eradicate. Some gardeners may prefer its perpetual feature while others prefer it as a annual vegetable by insuring its harvested before winter.
Leek - Portage - 94RW40
Suggested growing method is to aim for a long length white stem of up to 40cm, sow seed late winter/ early spring close enough together aiming for a spacing of 2cm apart, by mid summer the plants should be up to 30cm tall, dig them up trying not to damage the roots too much and place in a bucket with enough water in it to cover the roots. The soil these plants go into needs to be deeply dug over then using a rake or shovel handle poke it down into the soil as deep as 40cm, wriggle it around to make a shaft to which a leek plant is dropped down, then pour a small amount of water down, its just then a matter of insuring that the growth tip can grow up and out of the shaft

Although the seed from which the original crop was grown from was possibly a hybrid (even back then) it is no longer so, and reliably produces consistent crops.
Marigold - Starfire - 114MT49A
Nev's TPS - 136NS78B
Even from a relatively early stage when they may only be 100mms tall, differences will be discernible between these individuals. They truly are individuals. They may not all prosper. They will each possess their own degree of disease resistance and vigour. As a propagator you will be rewarded, by those that flourish, with crops of distinctly unique potato tubers; diverse in both form, colour, flavour, texture, maturity and keeping qualities. This is a pursuit I have been involved in for at least 20 years. It is an exciting enterprise (if you are a potato Nerd!), and can result in the coming into being of very worthwhile, totally new, delicious cultivars that you can then continue into the future via the usual system of growing from tubers. But don't forget to keep seed from the best of them and continue the exploration of potatoes from true seed.

Onion - Medbury Red Longkeeper - 35RW48
Onion - Pukekohe long keeper - 36RW50
Selection work involves sowing seed early spring so as to give the onion the longest possible growing season, this way the idea is to expose any onions that have a undesirable tendency to bolt to seed in its first year, its the second year that the onion is used seed production. After the first years growth, only onion that have excellent size and shape are stored for winter, springtime the first 50% that start to grow green shoots while still in storage are discarded and the remain 50% slow bolters planted back out from seed production. The slower the bolters the better the keeping ability.
Onion - Rossa Lunga - 141RG85A
Onion - Walsh - 37RG51
Parsley - Hamburg root parsley - 64RW53
Sow in spring in deep free draining soil as it takes a full growing season to reach full size and can be eaten during that winter.
Parsnip - Hollow Crown - 63RG56
They grow best in a light, deep rich soil. A generous amount of compost or humus in some other form helps develop a long eatable root.
Parsnip is notoriously difficult to grow for many gardeners because of parsnip seeds short lifespan, so to help with good germination all our parsnip seed is grown each year meaning seed is no more than 12 months when sold.
Parsnip - Kralcrown - 61RW55
This cross pollination carried by Richard in 2010 was between Hollow crown and Kral, hence the Kralcrown. The selection work that's carried out with this new variety involves growing it for one full season, seed is sown Aug, a year later they are dug up and only the healthiest, longest widest roots are replanted again for flowering/seed in spring.
