Grapefruit - Oro Blanco - Sale Price: $126.95 The Oro Blanco Grapefruit is thick skinned and is a popular, nearly seedless, grapefruit hybrid with white flesh. This fruit is produced from huge fragrant blossoms and large glossy-green foliage. As with many white fruits, the Oro Blanco's flesh is sweet and lacks any of the typical bitterness of a grapefruit. Oro Blanco is a vigorous, spreading tree with fantastic tasting grapefruit. Store at room temperature for up to 2 weeks, in the refrigerator for up to a month. Dwarf citrus trees can be successfully grown in containers throughout the United States. Allow for a few years of growth, so that you are not repotting every spring. Citrus do not need to be pruned, but you could prune them if they get too big and in the way. Oro Blanco is Spanish for white gold.

Currant - Red Lake - Sale Price: $39.95 Ornamental Shrub with Edible Fruit  Red Lake Currant is a cultivar that is grown for its outstanding fruit production. It’s also a lovely little shrub that would look great as an understory plant in part shade, or perhaps along a small shed or garage. The Red Lake Currant is a compact, rounded deciduous shrub that can grow to about five feet in height with an equal spread. The lobed green leaves give your shrub a full, vibrant appearance and if you crush a leaf between your fingers you’ll enjoy the appealing scent that is emitted. However, your Red Lake Currant truly shines in its fruit production. Tiny yellow flowers will bloom on your Red Lake Currant in the spring, but they’re generally unnoticeable. What you will notice however, are the long clusters of large, red berries that follow in July. High in Vitamin C and antioxidants, red currants are deliciously tart and suitable for many uses. Gently run your hands along the long strands and the berries will easily pop off and flow into your bucket—they’re that easy to harvest! Use your currents for pies, preserves, wine…or freeze some for later use. The Red Lake Currant is a grand little shrub with superb fruit production. Even if you don’t harvest the fruit yourself, the crimson berries provide stunning contrast against the aromatic green leaves, and the wildlife will love them. * Ornamental features * Edible fruit

Cranberry - Ben Lear - Sale Price: $39.95 Cranberry Ben Lear, Vaccinium 'Ben Lear', is a burgundy-red color, and its early fruiting period and large size is prized for processing into sauces. 'Ben Lear' is very productive. As crop plants go, cranberry is relatively undomesticated. Many popular varieties - including Ben Lear, is favored in Wisconsin because its fruit also turns a deep red earlier in the season. Grow Ben Lear in the fruit or vegetable garden for the food crop. Ornamentally, may be grown as a small scale ground cover for sunny areas or in the shrub or mixed border in front of other acid-loving plants such as azaleas and rhododendrons. Ben Lear ripens early season. Harvest berries by hand when red, from late September to late October. Berries cannot stand a frost below 30°F, so it is best to pick them before a hard frost or protect them with covers. Cranberries are one of the healthiest sources for getting your vitamin C and protecting your body against urinary track infections. More studies are showing other beneficial effects because of their high antioxidant.

Grape - Concord Seedless - Sale Price: $39.95 The Concord Seedless Grape, Vitis 'Concord Seedless', is a seedless blue-black fruit that is produced on this deciduous fruiting vine. This very productive grape has dark blue fruit that resembles Concord in color and flavor but the clusters and berries are slightly smaller and the fruit is seedless. You’ll get all the flavor, vigor and productivity of the original, but you won’t have to deal with the seeds! It even ripens slightly ahead of the original Concord. It is highly regarded as a pie grape and excellent for fresh eating, jam and jelly and ripens in late September. This grape tolerates a wide range of soil conditions, but must have good drainage. Grapes are primarily grown for fruit production in home fruit gardens where they provide good ornamental value: bold summer foliage, showy fruit, some fall color and shaggy, twisted trunking and branching often best seen in winter. Grapes need a good support system like fences, walls, trellises, arbors or other structures. The grape vines can be quite attractive year-round and can provide good cover, screening, or shade to areas around the home. Grapes need full sunlight and high temperatures to ripen, so plant on southern slopes, the south side of windbreaks, or the south sides of buildings. Birds love grapes, so be sure to plant some to share.
