This variety is a special and incredibly fun growing experience for young and old, but perhaps it is most appreciated by our youngest. Harvesting the beets to see which color comes up from the ground is just as fun as eating the fabulous palette of goodies on the plate.

This variety is perfect for container gardening and does not require as much space for its roots as other cucumber varieties, which is why it is called the apartment cucumber in common parlance.

Our founder Erik Hoekstra always plants the DoubleShot Appleblossom at the front of his vegetable patch.

It certainly has the size, with fully ripe fruits weighing around 200-260 grams and producing plenty of tomatoes throughout the summer.

fropase-rodbeta-detroit-2

Beetroot - Detroit 2 ECO

A highly cultivable beet with beautiful, large, round, and smooth-skinned roots. The skin is dark red just like the delicious flesh. Equally pleasant boiled as well as pickled, and the young leaves can be used in the same way as chard since they are very tasty. This variety is suitable for so much, such as salads, juices, soups, and much more when it comes to food. We at Florea also want to share a cooking tip on this particular variety that we really enjoy. It is salt-baked beets with thyme and lemon butter. Simply magical!
In addition to being a very popular side dish to many dishes, it is also an incredibly healthy vegetable with many healthy benefits and properties. Beets contain, among other things, a lot of folic acid and alkaloids which together help to lower the body&#8217;s homocysteine levels which reduces the risk of heart disease. Beets are also rich in nitrate, which in the body is converted to nitrogen oxide. Many studies show that the molecule dilates and relaxes blood vessels which in turn contributes to a more oxygen-rich blood and lowers blood pressure. So, if you want improved metabolism, performance, and muscle function, Detroit 2 is the vegetable you are looking for.
A healthy treat with a broad range of uses!

Wild Strawberry - Yellow Wonder

An early strawberry variety that produces abundant large, white-yellow, flavorful berries. Known for its long harvest time, which can last well into the fall as long as the nights are not too cold. The tasty berries are also incredibly decorative thanks to their unique color. Another big plus is that even the birds tend to leave this variety alone because they think the berries are not ripe.
Strawberries are also beautiful to plant in the front of beds thanks to their height and are also very easy to access. The cute little flowers in white are also very decorative, just like the little berries.
So if you&#8217;ve never tried white and yellow strawberries before, we highly recommend it. In fact, many of us at Florea actually prefer them to the classic red ones!
(The variety does not form runners)
