Winter Rye Seeds

Rye (Secale cereale) is an all-purpose crop: more frost and drought tolerant than wheat or oats, and capable of surviving in poor soils. Its role as a cover crop is to serve as a nutrient catch for unused soil nitrogen, build organic matter for soils and suppress weeds. When properly fertilized, and allowed to seed, it becomes a highly nutritious, filling and digestible grain flour. Plantings in the late summer for a late winter harvest or late winter for late fall harvest are most common. 330-345 days from seed to grain. Annual. Seeds are certified organic.

Japanese Maple, Acer palmatum, Tree Seeds (Fall Colors, Fast, Hardy, Bonsai)

Japanese Maple, Acer palmatum, Tree SeedsThese are small seeded.The tree looks the same as the large seeded type. The only difference is the size of the seeds. Hardy, Adaptable, Easy to Grow, Bonsai, Brilliant Fall Colors, Cold Tolerant Japanese Maple is a small deciduous tree of rounded or pyramidal habit prized for its fall colors. At maturity it can reach 15 to 25 feet, growing faster when young, slowing as it gets older. Japanese Maples are easy to care for and are very popular for bonsai. They perform well in containers and in the landscape. They are hardy, but grow best when planted in well-drained soil in a location protected from drying winds and where they will receive morning sun and afternoon shade. Native to Japan, China and Korea, Japanese Maple can be trained as a multi-stemmed shrub or single-stemmed tree. General plant form is rounded to broad-rounded, often with low-branching. The canopy is wispy and delicate and in some cultivars, weeping. It has slender, glabrous twigs and smooth gray bark. Branches tend to grow in horizontal layers, and often are contorted and twisted. The palmate leaves are 2 to 5 inches long and wide and deeply dissected with 5 to 11 lobes. The lobes are lance shaped, sharply pointed at the tips and doubly toothed on the edges. Small reddish-purple flowers in umbels bloom in mid spring. As with many maples, the flowers are rather attractive close up, but are not particularly showy from a distance. Flowers are followed by samaras (to 3/4 inch long) that ripen in September-October. Fall color includes shades of yellow, orange, red-purple or bronze. Cultivars are quite variable. This is one of the most beautiful small trees for the ornamental landscape. It is perfectly suited as a specimen tree, an accent in a mixed border or in a container on the patio. It anchors the Japanese style garden. Many of the cultivars remain quite small and are especially useful in small gardens, even rock gardens, and for bonsai.

Please check with your country’s customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to buying. Tracking is not available for International items. International mail varies from 10 to 30 business days (postal working days) and some countries require certain International items to be picked up at your post office. Upon processing your order, you will be sent a customs number, your shipping date and your shipping address, which you will need in order to retrieve it from your post office if you are required to do so. If these are not picked up in a reasonable time they may be returned or discarded. All mail items are subject to inspection by customs when crossing into another country. If stopped for inspection this will cause serious delays in receiving your item(s). You may or may not be notified of this. This may require you to pick up your package from your post office.
