Can be grown as an unusal houseplant when put in a bright sunny location and watered at least 3 times a week. No sunny location inside? Potted cane can be grown with the assistance of a grow light.
When planted outdoors it can reach a height from 4 to 12 feet and may take up to 18 months for a stalk to fully mature. When grown in tropical to sub-tropical climate they will multiply quickly. The number of canes will approximately double each preceding growing season as well as becoming thicker each year. Regularly remove dead leaves and weeds from the soil or the growth of the cane stalk can be stunted.
Mature Sugarcane are harvested by cutting level with the soil. This allows the original roots to regrow at least 2 - 3 more times before new ratoons are required. After harvesting be sure to continue the same watering & care as when the plant was actively growing above the ground level.

Passiflora Caerulea, Blue Passion Flower is also known as the Common Passion Flower, is a native of South America. This woody vine is capable of growing to 30 to 50 feet high where supporting trees or trellis are available. The dark green leaves are five-lobed like a hand (sometimes three or seven lobes), 4 to 7 inches long and wide.
The flowers, a favorite of both bees and butterflies, are about 4 inches in diameter with the five sepals and petals similar in appearance, whitish in colour, surmounted by a corona of blue or violet filaments, then five greenish-yellow stamens and three purple stigmas.
The fruit is egg shaped orange-yellow berry 3 to 4 inches long by 2 to 3 inches in diameter, containing numerous seeds. In tropical climates, it will flower all year round. The Edible Passiflora Caerulea is cultivated worldwide and can be a substitute for blackberries.
In South America, it is used to make juice, cocktails, wine, jelly, and delicious desserts such as the passion fruit mousse. We eat the seeds out of the ripest ones while in the garden, & the rinds go to compost. I just swish the seeds around in my mouth to release their wonderful flavor then swallow for a quick treat.

YES they are!
Macadamia nuts are high in monounsaturated fatty acid, the good fat, which can help reduce overall cholesterol levels. 80% of fat in macadamia oil
is monounsaturated 6% points higher than olive oil, which checks in at 74%. (Depending the grade & variety of Olive Oil)
Imagine a food that tastes good and is good for you too!
Macadamias contain potent antioxidants flavenoids (a phytochemical, tocopherols (vitamin E) & Omega 3that can help protect against cancer, heart disease & high blood pressure
and also contain vitamin A, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Unsalted macadamia nuts contain no cholesterol and are low in sodium and saturated fats.
The macadamia nut is one of the few foods that contain palmitoleic acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid. In a recent study, indicators suggest the palmitoleic acid may actually aid in fat metabolism, possibly reducing stored body fat.
Of course everything must be used in moderation. Too much of anything can harm the body. Studies are ongoing and sometimes prove inconclusive. So enjoy this wonderful and healthy treat with your family and friends.

Save time and take out the guess work of starting Lemongrass. Our Lemongrass Stalks have roots and are ready to plant! This pungent grass is rich in a substance called citral, which is said to aid in digestion as well as relieve spasms, muscle cramps, rheumatism headaches and even bad moods! Lemon grass is a favorite in teas & as the lemon scent in many products including soaps, perfumes & candles. Can be grown as an unusal houseplant when put in a bright sunny location. No sunny location inside? Potted Lemongrass can be grown with the assistance of a grow light. When planted outdoors it is hardy to Zone 9, where it will go dormant in the mild winters, & could eventually reach about 9 foot tall. In colder climates it needs to be taken inside during the winter & it only reaches about 3 foot or so tall. Lemongrass needs plenty of water and full sun for it to do it's very best. When bringing it inside in the fall, cut back to about 8 inches tall. Store in a cool part of the home & reduce the water to a minimum & it will go dormant. Later in the winter the Lemongrass will start to show signs of new growth, move it to a warm sunny window & resume normal watering. Replant in the ground after all danger of frost has passed.
