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

July 8, 2026

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. The brilliant fall foliage lights up the garden, and the slender twigs and contorted branches provide winter interest.

Shirley Temple Bareroot Peony, 2-3 Eye, Great for Fall Planting!

July 8, 2026

This gorgeous multi-layered peony with 4-6 inch blooms starts blooming late Spring and really puts on a dramatic show!Zone 3-8, Height 2-3 ft.Full sun to light shade in the deeper Southern States. Also, do not plant deeper than 2 inches of soil on top. Go deeper, and it will bloom poorly!A beautiful classic!Creates a low-growing, low-maintenance hedge that never needs pruning! Plant in full sun. Perennial peonies are what experienced gardeners call investment plants. They’re some of the most permanent landscaping you can buy. In fact, many continue blooming beautifully for over 100 years. Once they’re established, they’re as hardy and dependable as oaks, creating a fantastic season of bloom in your yard year after year. Planting Peonies Adding peonies to your garden is not difficult. All you need is full sun and good soil. (In even partial shade, the bloom will be scant or non-existent–keep them out in the sun!) As most gardeners know, the roots look like a bunch of carrots–thick long tapering tuber-like masses that increase every year. Feed them, water them, and the clumps will expand rapidly, and more and more blooms will result.

Beans provided natural fertilizer for all. Also Known As: Lumina Pumpkin, White Pumpkin, Snowball Pumpkin, Ghost Pumpkin, Casper Pumpkin, Carving Pumpkin, Polar Bear Pumpkin, Moon Pumpkin We ship in 1 business day. Shipped with USPS First Class Mail. Plant Name: Pumpkin, Lumina (PVP) Latin Name: Curcubita maxima Days to Germinate: 7-14 Days to Harvest: 100 Germination Rate: 90% Test Date: 10/22 Growth Habit: Vining USDA Zones: 3-9 Lifespan: Annual Country of Origin: United States Sunlight: Full Sun, Partial Shade GMO: No Pollination: Heirloom, Open-Pollinated Fungicide-Treated Seeds:*: No Seeds Packed For**: 2023 *Fungicide-treated seeds protect the seedlings from diseases until they are up and growing. Do not eat treated seeds. **Seeds are freshly packed for the growing season of the year listed. Seeds are still viable beyond pack date. Store in a cool and dry location such as the refrigerator or basement to best preserve germination rates. Planting Instructions: Soil Preparation: Squash grows best in sandy, fertile soils with a pH between 6.0 and 6.5. To prepare soil, remove weeds, large rocks, and litter from the planting area. Leave small weeds and dead grass, they will enrich the soil when turned under. Spade the soil 8-12 inches deep and turn each shovel of soil over completely to cover the plant materials with soil. You may add fertilizer (see “Fertilizing” below) or 2-3 inches of organic material such as compost, leaves, or rotted hay over the planting area at this point. Till to mix this organic material into the top 8-10 inches of soil. For squash, make rows of soil beds 4-6 inches high and at least 3 feet apart. This formation of ridges will help with drainage. Planting: Since squash does not grow well in cool weather, plant in the spring after all danger of frost has passed and the soil begins to warm. For a good fall crop, plant early so squash will mature before the first killing frost. To plant, make 1 inch deep holes spaced 4 feet apart in raised beds down the rows, then plant 5-6 seeds in each hole. Cover thinly with soil and water after planting. After the seeds come up and plants are 3-4 inches tall, thin to 3 squash plants per hill. *Tip: Plant squash with beans and corn for companion planting. Planting Depth: 1 inch Within-Row Spacing: 4 feet Between-Row Spacing: 8 feet Care During the Season: Watering: Water the plants enough to keep them from wilting. If the weather is really dry, squash plants should be watered at least once a week. Sandy soils need to be watered more often than heavy clay soils. Weeding: Keep squash plants as weed-free as possible. When plowing or hoeing do not dig deeper than 1 inch to prevent from cutting the feeder rooters which may slow the plant’s growth. Fertilizing: You may optionally add scatter 2-3 pounds of a complete fertilizer for each 100 square feet of garden area. Work into the soil and leave the surface smooth. For small gardens, use 2-3 tablespoons of fertilizer for each hill. Scatter the fertilizer evenly over a 2 foot by 2 foot area. work it into the top 2-3 inches of soil. When blooms first appear, you may optionally apply 2 tablespoons of fertilizer around each hill. Do not let fertilizer touch the plants. Water the plants after fertilizing. Insecticides: Insecticides may be used to protect plants. Bt-based insecticides and sulfur are organic options that can be used for prevention. Sulfur also has fungicidal properties and helps in controlling many diseases. Larvae of the Squash vine borer are usually found inside the stem and cannot be controlled once they are inside the stem. Sevin® and Thiodan® can control for squash bugs. Pyrethrin and rotenone can control for the cucumber beetle. Before using a pesticide, read the label and always follow cautions, warnings and directions. Diseases: Squash can get many diseases, especially when harvesting begins. Check the plants daily and if spots or mold appear, treat the plant with an approved fungicide. Neem oil, sulfur, and other fungicides may be used. Please always follow label directions. Harvesting: Harvest pumpkins when they are full sized and the skin is hard and can’t be pierced with a fingernail. A light frost will not damage pumpkins. Harvest by cutting at least 2 inches of stem above the pumpkin. Pumpkins can be stored for several months. Old squash vines can be composted or worked in the soil well before the Spring planting season.

July 8, 2026

European Hornbeam, Carpinus betulus, Tree Seeds Hardy, Adaptable, Easy to Grow, Bonsai, Fall Color, Hedge Plant, Topiary, Allee, Cold, Drought and Wind Tolerant European Hornbeam is a long lived medium-sized, deciduous tree that grows 40 to 60 feet (less frequently to 80 feet) tall with a pyramidal to oval-rounded crown. Ovate, sharply-toothed, dark green leaves (to 5 inches long) are dark green and attractive throughout the growing season with little susceptibility to foliar diseases. Foliage turns yellow to orange in fall. Monoecious flowering catkins form in early spring before the foliage emerges. Male catkins (to 1.5 inches long) are yellowish and female catkins (to 3 inches long) are greenish. Fruit is a ribbed nutlet that is borne at the base of a leafy bract. Leafy bracts hang in clusters. Fruit matures in September through October. The fruits and buds are eaten by a variety of birds. Trunks have a handsome smooth gray bark and distinctive muscle-like fluting. European Hornbeam has been cultivated for many centuries. Trees are used extensively in England and continental Europe for hedges and allees. It is often described as the hardiest, heaviest and toughest of woods. The extremely hard wood of this tree will, as the common name suggests, take a horn-like polish and was once used in Europe to make yokes for oxen (the beam between the ox horns). The wood was used for wheel cogs, axils, spokes, wooden screws, tool handles, and butchers blocks. The wood is used for pianos and many of their working parts.

Tolerates light shade but prefers full sun. Relatively drought and wind tolerant and somewhat tolerant of environmental stresses. Culture: Needs little pruning when grown as a tree, but responds well to hard pruning if grown as a hedge or allee. Best pruned during the period of late summer to mid-winter to avoid significant bleeding. Uses: Excellent landscape tree, shade tree for lawns or street tree. Trees can be used as specimens, in groupings or as hedges. Popular Bonsai, Topiary and Allee. Sowing Carpinus betulus Seeds: For best results, please follow the instructions in the order provided.
