Ribbed plant

Stomatium species Seeds The genus Stomatium is placed in the Mesembryanthemaceae family. Members of this family are commonly referred to as Mesembs and are succulents. The genus name was derived from the Greek word stomation which means open mouth, in reference to the toothed leaf pairs which resemble gaping mouths. The novice succulent admirer will at first be easily confused between Stomatium and Faucaria, yet there are a few distinguishing features to tell them apart. Stomatium flowers are scented and give off a sweet sugary smell whereas Faucaria flowers are unscented. The leaf surfaces of Stomatium species are minutely pimpled, unlike those of species of Faucaria, which are either perfectly smooth, rarely warty or ribbed as is the case with Faucaria tuberculosa. Stomatium species form compact plants. They have unusual tongue-shaped leaf surfaces with toothed margins.  The pear-scented yellow flowers are a lovely bonus.

Parodia is a genus of flowering plants in the cactus family Cactaceae. The genus is named after the Argentine botanist Lorenzo Raimundo Parodi who lived from 1895 to 1966. Flowers in all species arise from fuzzy buds, typically with bristles, at the apex. Flowers are cup-shaped and point straight up. They are easy to grow, have intriguing stems and spines and flower easily with brightly-coloured flowers. This fact in combination with their relatively small size, ensure that nearly all cactus growers will have some representative of this group. While advanced hobbyists may grow many of the various species and subspecies.           The genus has about 50 species, many of which have been transferred from Eriocactus, Notocactus and Wigginsia. They are native to the uplands of Argentina, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia and Uruguay and range from small globose plants to 1 meter tall columnar cacti. All are deeply ribbed and spiny, with single flowers at or near the crown. Some species produce offsets at the base and most are free flowering, with stunning blooms throughout the year. These cacti are perfect for rockeries, where they will give your garden splashes of colour or as pot plants on a sunny windowsill. Either way you are assured of many years of joy. Parodia magnifica, formerly known as Notocactus magnificus and commonly known as Balloon Cactus originates from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. It is a cactus growing to 7–15 cm tall by 45 cm broad, with heavily ribbed, spherical to columnar, spiny and hairy stems, bearing pale yellow flowers in summer. The habitat where this plant comes from can become very cold during the winter nights. Often it will fall to just above freezing without harming the plants as it is also very dry. Therefore, if you live in a frost prone area, keep this plant dry during winter. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.

Swiss Chard originates from a wild version of beetroot that naturally grew in the Mediterranean. The Greek philosopher, Aristotle wrote about chard in the fourth century B.C. The original variety has been traced back to the largest Mediterranean island, Sicily not Switzerland as you might think. The name 'Swiss' comes from the Swiss botanist Koch who determined the scientific name of this plant in the 19th century. Rhubarb Red Chard is distinguished by its bouquet of wrinkled, slightly savoyed rich green leaves and bright red-coloured stems. The leaves grow upright and tall from a dense rosette of ribbed stems. It has subtle earthy flavours along with slight notes of tang, due to its betalain pigment content Tasting note: Earthy & salty About Sow Delicious In 2013, Vanessa Jacobs set out to find the simplest way to grow a garden fit for a foodie, giving people the opportunity to proudly plant a garden that is Sow Delicious!

  MELON HALES BEST JUMBO AKA Spanspek   Hale's Best Melon - HEIRLOOM Heavy producer of oval-shaped muskmelons averaging 2-2 ½ kg each. Melons are heavily netted and slightly ribbed with juicy salmon flesh. This great variety has stood the test of time and is still loved by many for its old-fashioned melon flavor. Good resistance to Powdery Mildew, and resistant to drought. When growing melons, you will need plenty of room for the vines to stretch and grow. It is essential that your plant your melons in an area where they will receive a lot of sunlight. Your melons will require healthy soil and plenty of hydration to grow to their best Prepare some fertile and rich soil for planting by working compost or natural fertilizers into the soil. You should then dig mounds of two or three inches to plant the melon seeds. The melon seeds only need to be planted about 25mm down into the mounds. You can plant up to a dozen seeds in each mound. Do not allow too many melon plants to sprout in each hill. Too many plants in one spot will restrict the growth of the plants. To further ensure that the melon vines will have enough room to grow, you should make certain each mound of seeds is planted 120cm apart It can take awhile for your melons to grow. They will not typically be ready to harvest until they have been planted in the ground for three months or more. While you wait for your melons to grow, you will want to make certain they receive enough water. CLICK ON SHIELD TO VIEW OUR OTHER ITEMS:  

Polaskia is a genus of two tree -like cactus species, placed in the Cactaceae family. It is named after the American amateur botanist, Charles Polaski. Both species grows to 5 meters in height. Both present primitive characteristics, but Polaskia chichipe is nearer to Myrtillocactus while Polaskia chende is nearer to Stenocereus. The genus is found in the Southern Mexican states of Puebla and Oaxaca. They are columnar cacti which branches as it ages with many branches on a short trunk. Stems are ribbed with fairly shallow spaces between ribs. Areoles are spaced 2 or 3 cm apart along the ribs. Spines are short and stout, numbering 8-10 radials and one central. Spines may not be present at all - especially on mature plants.  Flowers are widely-opened cups of pinkish white or yellow-green - with or without spines. The fruits are small fleshy berries. They are considered fairly easy to grow and germinate freely from seed. These cacti are perfect for rockeries, where they will give your garden structural height or as potted plants on a sunny patio. Either way you are assured of many years of joy. Polaskia chichipe is a columnar cactus, cultivated for its edible fruits known as Chichituna, Chichipe or Chichibe. It is also grown for its valuable branches which, when dried make excellent fuel wood. Plants under cultivation have larger and sweeter fruits and a much longer period of fruit production. The flowers are self-compatible so you would only need one plant for it to produce fruits. Polaskia chichipe is a columnar tree-like cactus with many curved branches, up to 5 m tall. It has a few taxonomic synonyms including Cereus chichipe, Lemaireocereus chichipe, Myrillocactus chichipe, Cereus mixtecensis and Lemaireocereus mixtecensis. Give it good drainage and use open and free draining mineral compost that allows the roots to breath. They like only a short winter's rest and should be kept almost completely dry during the winter months.  If the soil is allowed to be dry for too long root loss could occur but equally the same result would transpire if the plants are both wet and cold. From spring onwards the plant will begin to grow and watering should be increased gradually until late spring when the plant should be in full growth.

They are native to the uplands of Argentina, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia and Uruguay and range from small globose plants to 1 meter tall columnar cacti. All are deeply ribbed and spiny, with single flowers at or near the crown. Some species produce offsets at the base and most are free flowering, with stunning blooms throughout the year. These cacti are perfect for rockeries, where they will give your garden splashes of colour or as pot plants on a sunny windowsill. Either way you are assured of many years of joy. Parodia roseolutea is a solitary globular cactus from southern South America. Parodia roseolutea grows up to 25cm in circumference and is nicely spined. It produces magnificent 7.5cm flowers in late spring. They are red to pink with a yellow throat. This plant seems to incorporate some of the features of both Parodia herteri and Parodia mammulosa. Both flower colour and spination seem to be midway between the two species. The plant can ultimately reach the size of Parodia herteri but it flowers at a much smaller size and withstands some winter coldness.

Parodia microsperma is an interesting species. Within the species there are numerous varieties and forms present. Size, colour, flower and spines characteristic can vary considerably from one plant to the next. As the species name “ microsperma ” suggests, the one commonality amongst all the different forms and varieties is that they all have very tiny seeds that are about 0.4mm long. Parodia microsperma needs regular water in summer but keep it rather dry in winter as it tends to lose its roots in winter if kept wet and cold. It can tolerate light frost at -1°C and if kept dry at -9°C.
