Known for its reliable yields and excellent flavor, this heirloom cultivar produces large, dense heads that are perfect for fresh eating, steaming, or roasting. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just starting out, Waltham broccoli is a forgiving choice that rewards you with consistent harvests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose Waltham Broccoli?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis variety stands out for several reasons. Waltham broccoli plants are vigorous growers that adapt well to various climates and soil conditions. The heads mature uniformly, making it easier to plan your harvest. The flavor is sweet and tender, with minimal bitterness—a quality that makes it popular with families and chefs alike. Plus, after you harvest the main head, the plant continues to produce smaller side shoots, extending your harvest season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlanting and Growing Conditions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWaltham broccoli thrives in cool-season weather, making spring and fall the ideal planting times in most regions. Start seeds indoors 4 to 6 weeks before your last spring frost, or direct sow in late summer for a fall crop. The plants need full sun—at least 6 hours daily—and rich, well-draining soil with plenty of organic matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpace plants 18 to 24 inches apart to allow for good air circulation and room to develop. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. A layer of mulch helps retain moisture and keeps roots cool during warmer months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare and Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeed your Waltham broccoli every 2 to 3 weeks with a balanced fertilizer or compost tea to support steady growth. Watch for common pests like cabbage worms and aphids—row covers can provide protection in early growth stages. Consistent watering is crucial; irregular moisture can lead to smaller heads or premature bolting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHarvesting Your Crop\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe main head is ready to harvest when it reaches 4 to 8 inches in diameter and the florets are still tight and green. Cut the head with a sharp knife, leaving 8 to 10 inches of stem attached.

Known for its distinctive warm, slightly sweet flavor and aromatic seeds, caraway has earned a place in kitchens and gardens around the world. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just starting out, growing caraway is a rewarding experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUnderstanding Caraway\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCaraway produces feathery, fern-like foliage in its first year and delicate white or pink flowers in its second year. The plant typically reaches 12 to 24 inches in height, making it a nice addition to herb gardens and vegetable beds. The seeds, which develop after flowering, are the most prized part of the plant for culinary purposes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGrowing Caraway from Seed\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCaraway prefers full sun and well-draining soil with a neutral to slightly alkaline pH. Sow seeds directly in the garden in fall or early spring, as caraway has a long taproot that doesn't transplant well. Plant seeds about a quarter-inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist until germination occurs. Thin seedlings to 6 inches apart once they've sprouted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare Through the Growing Season\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce established, caraway is relatively low-maintenance. Water moderately during dry spells, but avoid overwatering as the plant prefers drier conditions. Caraway doesn't require heavy fertilization—in fact, overly rich soil can reduce seed production. The plant will flower in its second year, and seeds will be ready to harvest in late summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHarvesting and Using Caraway Seeds\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHarvest seed heads when they turn brown but before they drop naturally. Cut the entire head and place it in a paper bag to dry completely. Once dry, rub the heads to release the seeds. Caraway seeds are perfect for breads, cheeses, pickles, and traditional European dishes. They also have a long history of use in herbal teas and digestive remedies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Grow Caraway at Home\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrowing your own caraway ensures a fresh supply of seeds whenever you need them. The plant attracts beneficial insects to your garden and requires minimal pest management.

A biennial in the carrot family that grows 1'-3' tall, with feathery foliage and tiny white flowers. The seeds, which have an earthy-citrusy-peppery flavor, are the most used, but the flowers, leaves, stems, and root (which looks like a small parsnip, and can be used like any other root vegetable) are also edible. While you’re waiting for the flowers, seeds, and roots to develop in the second year, spend the first year using the leaves, which have a parsley-dill flavor, in salads, soups, and sautés.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParsley-dill flavor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll parts are edible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCulinary and medicinal uses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood for containers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs a companion plant, it attracts pollinators and beneficial insects, and repels aphids, cabbage moths, cabbage white butterfly, cabbage worms, carrot root fly, and caterpillars.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAs a medicinal herb, Caraway has been used internally to treat asthma, bad breath, bloating, colds, colic, cough, flatulence, heartburn, indigestion, insomnia, lack of appetite, nausea, sore throat, and stomach cramps, and externally to treat arthritis, bruises, burns, skin irritation, toothache, and wounds.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e⚠️ Medicinal properties are presented as information only, and are not a recommendation or prescription for use.

Related to the artichoke, cardoon produces tall, silvery-green foliage and impressive thistle-like flowers. Beyond its ornamental appeal, this Mediterranean native offers culinary and medicinal benefits that have been valued for generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is Cardoon?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCardoon is a robust plant that can reach 3 to 4 feet in height, making it an excellent choice for creating vertical interest in garden beds. The plant features deeply lobed, silvery leaves that catch the light beautifully, and produces purple or blue flowers that attract pollinators. Both the stems and roots are edible, with a flavor reminiscent of artichoke hearts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePlanting and Growing Conditions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCardoon thrives in full sun and well-draining soil. It's remarkably tolerant of poor soil conditions and drought, making it ideal for gardeners in drier climates. Start seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost, or direct sow after the danger of frost has passed. Space plants about 2 to 3 feet apart to allow room for their sprawling growth habit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare and Maintenance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce established, cardoon requires minimal care. Water during extended dry periods, but the plant is quite drought-tolerant once its root system is developed. Cardoon doesn't need heavy fertilization and actually prefers leaner soil. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming, or leave them to attract beneficial insects and pollinators to your garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHarvesting Cardoon\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe edible stems are best harvested in the plant's second year, typically in late fall or early winter. Blanch the stems by wrapping them with burlap or cardboard several weeks before harvest to make them more tender and mild. The roots can also be dug and used, and the flowers are beautiful additions to fresh arrangements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Grow Cardoon\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCardoon is a conversation starter in any garden.

The plants develop long, thick stalks with a rich green color and exceptional crispness. The flavor is clean and classic, making it versatile for salads, soups, stews, and snacking straight from the garden. Tall Utah 52-70 also stores well, allowing you to enjoy your harvest for weeks after picking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eStarting Your Seeds\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBegin seeds indoors 8 to 10 weeks before your last spring frost. Celery seeds require light to germinate, so scatter them on the surface of moist seed-starting mix and press gently into place without covering. Maintain soil temperature around 70°F and keep moisture consistent. Seedlings will emerge in 10 to 21 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce seedlings develop their first true leaves, thin them and transplant into individual pots. Gradually acclimate plants to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days before transplanting to the garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePlanting in the Garden\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose a location with full sun and rich, well-draining soil amended with compost or aged manure. Space plants 8 to 10 inches apart in rows, allowing room for the tall growth habit. Celery is a heavy feeder and moisture lover, so prepare beds with plenty of organic matter before planting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWatering and Feeding\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep soil consistently moist throughout the growing season—celery needs steady water supply to develop tender, crisp stalks. Water deeply and regularly, especially during dry spells. Apply mulch around plants to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Feed every 3 to 4 weeks with a balanced fertilizer or side-dress with compost to support vigorous growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBlanching for Tenderness\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor extra-tender, pale stalks, blanch plants as they mature by gently mounding soil around the base or wrapping stalks with cardboard or newspaper. Begin blanching about 3 weeks before harvest. This step is optional but produces the classic pale celery many gardeners prefer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHarvesting and Storage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTall Utah 52-70 is ready to harvest 85 to 100 days after transplanting. Pick outer stalks individually as needed, or harvest the entire plant by cutting at the base. For best flavor and crispness, harvest in the morning when stalks are full of moisture. Store harvested celery in the refrigerator where it will keep for several weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith proper care, Tall Utah 52-70 delivers a bountiful harvest of delicious, crisp celery that will become a garden staple for years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall, Tall Utah celery thrives in garden beds and containers, rewarding growers with crisp, flavorful stalks perfect for fresh eating, juicing, or cooking. Plant seeds indoors 10 weeks before your last frost, then transplant into rows spaced 2 feet apart with 6–8 inches between plants. This variety develops strong roots and excellent heart formation, reaching full maturity in about 100 days. With consistent moisture and moderate care, you'll harvest tender 11–12 inch stalks that make a nutritious addition to any home garden, no matter the size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended by USU.

This sophisticated herb is less commonly grown than its parsley cousins, but gardeners who discover it often become devoted fans. It's the secret ingredient that adds sophistication to soups, sauces, and fresh herb applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSubtle Flavor and Delicate Appearance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChervil features finely cut, feathery leaves that are more delicate than parsley, creating an almost lacy appearance in the garden. The foliage is bright green and finely textured, making chervil plants attractive in herb gardens or containers. The flavor is distinctly different from parsley—subtle, slightly sweet, with gentle anise undertones that don't overpower but rather enhance other ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis delicate flavor profile makes chervil essential in French cuisine, particularly in fine herb blends like fines herbes. It's perfect for finishing soups, garnishing fish dishes, and adding to fresh salads where its subtle character won't compete with other flavors. Chervil is best used fresh, as cooking diminishes its delicate taste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGrowing Chervil Successfully\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChervil prefers cool to moderate temperatures and partial shade, making it ideal for spring and fall growing. It struggles in hot summer conditions, so timing is important. Start seeds indoors four to six weeks before your last spring frost, or direct sow seeds outdoors in early spring or late summer for fall harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlant seedlings or thin direct-sown plants to 6 inches apart in well-draining soil rich in organic matter. Chervil prefers consistent moisture and benefits from afternoon shade in warmer climates. Water regularly and mulch around plants to keep soil cool and retain moisture. Chervil is relatively cold-hardy and often produces well into fall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHarvesting and Culinary Uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBegin harvesting outer leaves once plants are established, pinching them off at the base to encourage bushier growth. Chervil has a shorter harvest window than parsley, so plan for successive sowings every few weeks to ensure continuous supply. The delicate leaves are best used fresh, added at the end of cooking to preserve their subtle flavor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChervil works beautifully in egg dishes, light cream sauces, and fresh herb butters. It's a key component of fines herbes, the classic French herb blend. Chervil can be frozen in ice cube trays with a little water or oil, though fresh use is preferred.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Refined Addition to Your Garden\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChervil brings French sophistication to home gardens and kitchens.

This hardy herb establishes quickly in garden beds or containers, preferring full sun and moderately fertile, well-draining soil. Chives produce attractive purple-pink flower clusters that bloom throughout spring and summer, offering ornamental appeal alongside culinary utility. Continuous harvesting encourages bushier growth and extends productivity across multiple seasons. The plant's shallow root system makes it an excellent companion in vegetable gardens, and its pungent foliage naturally repels certain garden pests. Exceptionally cold-hardy and drought-tolerant once established, chives require minimal maintenance while providing consistent harvests for soups, salads, and garnishes.

With their unique appearance and excellent flavor, Morris Heading collards add both visual interest and nutritional value to your garden. This variety is particularly rewarding for gardeners who appreciate plants that are as beautiful as they are productive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUnderstanding Morris Heading Collards\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMorris Heading collards stand apart from traditional spreading varieties by developing a loose, cabbage-like head formation. The leaves are deeply savoyed with a blue-green color and remain remarkably tender even as they mature. This variety offers excellent cold hardiness and actually develops sweeter, more flavorful leaves after exposure to frost. It's an ideal choice for fall and winter gardening in most climates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePlanting Requirements\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStart Morris Heading collard seeds directly in the garden or begin indoors 5 to 7 weeks before your transplant date. These plants need full sun—at least 6 hours daily—and rich, well-draining soil with plenty of organic matter worked in. Space plants 18 to 24 inches apart to allow room for head development. Plant in early spring for summer harvests or in mid-summer for fall and winter crops when flavor is at its peak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWatering and Soil Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep soil consistently moist throughout the growing season, providing 1 to 1.5 inches of water weekly through rain or irrigation. Mulch around plants with 2 to 3 inches of organic material to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Morris Heading collards are heavy feeders, so apply a balanced fertilizer every 3 to 4 weeks or side-dress with compost to support vigorous growth and head formation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSupporting Head Development\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs your Morris Heading collards grow, gently tie loose leaves together with soft twine once the head begins to form. This encourages tighter head development and protects inner leaves from weather and pests. Remove any yellowed or damaged outer leaves to improve air circulation and reduce disease pressure. This light pruning also directs energy toward head formation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePest and Disease Management\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMonitor regularly for cabbage worms, flea beetles, and other brassica pests. Use row covers during early growth stages for protection. Inspect plants weekly and remove pests by hand when possible. Ensure adequate spacing and air circulation to prevent fungal diseases. Remove lower leaves as plants mature to improve ventilation around the developing head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHarvesting Your Crop\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBegin harvesting outer leaves once plants reach 12 inches tall, typically 60 to 75 days after planting. You can harvest individual leaves or cut the entire head once it reaches desired size. For extended harvests, pick outer leaves regularly while allowing the center to continue growing. Harvest in the morning for the crispest, most tender leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCooking and Storage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMorris Heading collards are versatile in the kitchen—steam, sauté, braise, or add to soups and stews. Their tender texture and mild flavor make them appealing to a wide range of palates. Store fresh leaves in the refrigerator for up to two weeks, or blanch and freeze for longer storage.
