Sale Location: Seed St. Louis Carriage House, 3815 Bell Ave., St. Louis, MO 63108
NEW ~ Artichoke ‘Wonder’, $7.00 each: Yes, you can grow artichokes here! This plant will grow to 2-3′ wide. It will first produce several artichokes that are 4-5″ in diameter. The compact, nearly spineless plants reach 36–48 inch tall and can yield 10–15 buds each. Plant Spacing: 2-3′
Basil ‘Everleaf Thai Towers’*: During our basil variety trials, all varieties bolted very quickly, or were girdled by ants, except for one, Everleaf Thai Towers! The flavor is different than a classic Italian basil but it’s good and wow, was it productive! It also didn’t even start flowering until mid-October. Plant Spacing: 8-12″ apart
NEW ~ Basil ‘Genovese Compact Improved’: This basil has similar flavor, appearance, and leaf size as a classic Genovese basil but is more compact and uniform as it gets to just 16-18” tall. This traditional pesto-type basil produces 2-3” leaves with excellent flavor. Plant Spacing: 4-8″ apart
Clustered Mountain Mint (Perennial): This Missouri native is an effective pollinator plant and doesn’t spread aggressively like other mints since it has a more compact and clumping habitat. It is one of the best nectar sources for native butterflies and beneficial pollinators and has been named the 2025 Perennial Plant of the Year by the Perennial Plant Association! Site: Full Sun/Light Shade, moderately moist soil but can tolerate heat and drought conditions. Plant Spacing: 24-36″ apart
Eggplant ‘Ping Tung’*: Ping Tung was the favorite of 16 eggplants we trialed! It is an early-producing and high-yielding variety with dark purple fruit that are long, skinny, and about 9″ long. The plants grew up to 3’ tall but didn’t need any extra support. Plant Spacing: 15-18″ apart
Lavender ‘Munstead’ (Perennial): This is a fantastic companion plant for your garden and will produce showy purple flowers which pollinators love. Be sure to mulch your lavender in the fall to ensure it comes back year after year. Site: Full Sun with well draining soil. Plant Spacing: 12-18″ apart
Pepper (Sweet) ‘Corbaci’*: This was one of the winners from our sweet pepper variety trials! It is consistently productive (instead of producing in waves like many peppers) and is also an early producer. The long and thin fruits can be harvested when green, yellow, or red. Plant Spacing: 18-24″ apart
Pepper (Sweet) ‘Mountain Roaster’*: Another variety trial winner, this very vigorous sweet pepper has impressive early growth and production! It produces medium-sized red peppers with thick flesh and delicious flavor. Plant Spacing: 18-24″ apart
Pepper (Hot) ‘Shishito’: This popular pepper produces thin-skinned peppers with a little bit of heat. The plants produce high yields of 3-3.5″ long, slightly wrinkled, peppers. When left on the plant to turn red, the peppers can be slightly sweet and are delicious added to salads and slaws. Plant Spacing: 12-18” apart
Rhubarb (Perennial): This is a hardy perennial of the smartweed family and is grown for its large edible stalks which are used in pies, preserves, and more. (The leaves contain toxins and are not eaten.) The plants can remain productive 8-15 years and when mature, grow to 2-4′ tall. Plant Spacing: 2-3′ apart
Sea Kale (Perennial): A Seed St. Louis favorite, Sea Kale is a wild relative of the common brassicas like cabbage, collards, and broccoli. It doesn’t like wet feet but otherwise is pretty low maintenance. Although the leaves can be eaten like other brassicas, each summer it produces small clumps of flower buds that can be eaten just like broccoli. If you let it bloom, it’s a pollinator magnet and the flowers smell just like honey! Site: Full Sun/Part Shade, fertile soil that is well-draining. Plant Spacing: 24″ apart
Sorrel ‘Red Veined’ (Perennial): This sorrel has beautiful red veining throughout the leaves and its flavor is often compared to a tart, sour green apple. It’s very hardy and can even grow in partial shade. The young leaves can be eaten raw, while the mature leaves are better cooked. It’s high in vitamin C and at one time was even used to fight scurvy. Site: Full sun but tolerates light shade, prefers well-worked, well draining soil. Plant Spacing: 12-18″ apart
Sweet Potato Slips ‘Beauregard’: This variety is a classic sweet potato with deep orange flesh that does well in our area. The leaves are also nutritious and can be eaten raw or cooked. These will be sold in sets of 6 for $5.00. Plant Spacing: 12″ within a row and 24″ between rows
Sweet Potato Slips ‘O’Henry’: This variety is a stabilized mutation of the Beauregard variety! It’s a white sweet potato with a lighter and more delicate flavor than your classic sweet potato like Beauregard. They are also slightly drier than other sweet potatoes, making them perfect for baking, fries, and chips. These will be sold in sets of 6 for $5.00. Plant Spacing: 10-12” apart
Sweet Potato Slips ‘Porto Rico’ (Bush): Growing Porto Rico is a great way to grow sweet potatoes in a smaller space. You will still have vines but they don’t get as long as a typical sweet potato like Beauregard. These will be sold in sets of 6 for $5.00. Plant Spacing: 10-12″ apart
Tomato ‘Brad’s Atomic Grape’: This tomato, which produces large cherry-size tomatoes, was recommended by our grower DIG Annuals and Perennials! It’s a multi-colored, productive variety developed by Wild Boar Farms. The crack-resistant tomatoes are lavender and purple striped when immature, turning green, red/brown with blue stripes when mature. The interior is green and blushed with red when ripe. Plant Spacing: 24″ apart
Tomato ‘Korean Apple’: This variety has held up during floods, heat waves, and droughts without splitting or dropping its flowers. It is a high-yielding variety that produces yellow fruits about the size of a Roma tomato that have a long shelf life. Plant Spacing: 18-24″ apart
Tomato ‘Mikado’: This is the first commercially released potato leaf tomato from 1886 and is what the Brandywine tomato was developed from! This rare American heirloom requires staking since it produces heavy fruits up to 1.5-2 pounds. Plant Spacing: 24″ apart
Tomato ‘Reverend Morrow’s Long Keeper’*: This variety trial winner is a storage tomato meaning that they were bred to store into the winter. Traditionally the plants are uprooted in the fall and the whole plant hung inside to store. This winner stood out for storing for an incredibly long time and for having good flavor. (We uprooted the plants in October and still have tomatoes in early July!) Plant Spacing: 24″ apart
Wild Arugula (Perennial): This perennial has a stronger arugula than the annual you are probably used to. When it blooms, its yellow flowers are also edible! It will self-seed but you can remove the seed heads to prvent it from spreading. The leaves are thicker than the annual arugula so it holds up better to cooking. Site: Full Sun (tolerates light shade) Plant Spacing: 4-6″ apart
Wild Korean Celery (Perennial): This perennial can be harvested for both it’s leaves and stalks in late spring and again in fall. In June, it produces flowers like Queen Anne’s lace that pollinators love! It has a somewhat stronger flavor than celery and is great in soups. Site: Full to part sun, Plant Spacing: 24″
