The Sweetest, Most Tender Corn You’ll Ever Eat! You have to taste it to believe the succulent, super-sweet, fresh-picked flavor of this amazing corn.

(Isolate Mirai from other varieties of corn (except Supersweets) by at least 50 feet, or plant Mirai 2+ weeks later than others, to prevent cross-pollination.)

Marigold for controlling root nematodes, killing 99% over a 3-month period — even better than chemical pesticides!

Ornmental Grasses

Ornamental grasses are the busy gardener's best friend, offering the beauty of flowering perennials combined with the structural interest of shrubs and the carefree growth of wildflowers. Many are drought-tolerant, and some thrive in boggy or wet soils. Use them in difficult areas such as slopes and curb strips, as a backdrop in the border, and in mixed containers. Most bloom from late summer through autumn and into winter, making them excellent companions to spring-flowering bulbs and other early bloomers. [ A ] Bunny Tails. (Lagurus ovatus.)

Soft, fluffy 2½-inch “bunny tail” blooms, maturing from chartreuse to rich tan, are perfect in arrangements, alongside walkways, children’s gardens, or with flowering plants in your best containers.

The Park Creed “Your success and pleasure are more to Park than your money.” George W. Park truly believed and lived this creed. This was his interpretation of the verse from Proverbs, “A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favor rather than silver and gold.” While this policy did not make him rich in worldly goods, he was rich in friends, for he felt that each customer was his friend. Along with it went a great responsibility to serve the many dedicated garden-lovers of America with the finest flower and vegetable seeds at reasonable prices, and in such variety that everyone would find all their wishes in Park Seed’s flower and vegetable books.

Bean Beans are so easy! Whether you grow tender Bush or Pole varieties (also called snap or garden beans) for eating and canning or shell types (also called dry or hard-shelled) for storage, beans grow readily in any sunny spot and offer great nutrition as well as delicious flavor. Direct-sow the seeds into the garden when the soil has warmed in spring, adding a nitrogen-fixing inoculant (see Nature’s Aid, p. 91) to improve the soil. And when your crop is harvested, be sure to till under the plants. They do wonders for soil quality!

Visit parkseed.com/climbingvegetables Send the Vegetable Garden Skyward! Grow your veggie patch vertically as well as horizontally this season, and create more planting space! Many vining and spreading vegetable plants benefit from the support offered by a trellis, pen, or fence. Even if you aren't pressed for space in the garden, there are many reasons to "go skyward": • Your crop ripens more evenly and cleanly • Harvesting the veggies is much easier — no crawling around! • Nibbling pests can't access the crop as easily off the ground • Vining plants cast a bit of welcome shade onto neighboring crops. Tomatoes, beans, cucumbers, and peas are among the crops that usually need some sort of support, but many other fruiting plants benefit from vertical growth too. Try peppers, baby pumpkins, summer squash of all types, berries, and even small melons on vertical supports. You'll be amazed by how much healthier the fruit looks, how easy it is to harvest, and how productive the plant becomes! Nature provides many natural supports for vining vegetables, such as corn stalks for beans (part of the Native American "Three Sisters" planting). But placing a few cages, pens, and fences into the veggie patch at the start of the season can save you considerable trouble later on, as your crops begin to take off. Let them grow up and through these supports, tying the stalks gently if needed, and you'll enjoy your best harvest ever! [ A ] Park's Cucumber Support Adjustable Hinged Design!
