Orange - Washington Navel
Orange - Washington Navel Grow Delicious Seedless Oranges at Home The Washington Navel Orange is seedless and matures early in winter. Being thick and easy to peel, it is the most widely planted variety of orange in the state of California, where growers take their citrus trees seriously! The Washington Navel is popular because of its outstanding flavor for both eating out of hand and for juicing. It produces an abundance of large, seedless fruits, and it has the convenience of being able to store ripe oranges on the tree for up to three months, without diminished quality. The flowers on a Washington Navel bloom and get pollinated in the spring, but then take seven to ten months to mature and ripen. These fragrant waxy white flowers, along with the shiny deep green foliage and large orange fruits make for a beautiful tree for containers, or the landscape, year round. Washington Navel Orange prefers full sun, fertile, but well drained soil, and moderate water.

Dewberry - Lucretia - Sale Price: $42.75 Dewberry Lucretia’, Rubus roribaccus 'Lucretia’, is a cousin of the blackberry and produces sweet, long, shiny black berries in mid to late summer. This dewberry has dark green foliage that grows on trailing vines that need to be trained on stakes or trellises. If this plant grows on a support it makes for cleaner fruit and easier harvests; otherwise it will trail on the ground and if left to ramble, plants produce a 2- to 3-foot deep tangle of thorny stems. However, the vines should be laid on the ground and protected for the winter with straw or other material, especially in the cold northern climates. Lucretia has blackberry-like dark green foliage and early summer flowers that provide a decorative value in the landscape. The scrumptious berries are long, shiny black and arrive in mid to late summer. Use them as you would any berries in jams, pies, cobblers, turnovers, or just pick and gobble them fresh from the vine! They get their name from the fact that the berries are often seen covered in dew in the early mornings. |
