The Watermelon Moom & Stars, 'Citrullus lanatus', is an old Amish heirloom recently rediscovered in rural Missouri. The yellow dots look like stars scattered among larger moons on a very dark green rind and on the foliage. This genetic defect in the pigmentation makes it the most interesting looking watermelon around and has no effect on the very sweet, red, and absolutely delicious flesh. Watermelon ripens in about 35 days after the flowers are pollinated by bees. Fertilize lightly every 4 to 6 weeks. Price:

The Bean Bush Snap Contender, 'Phaseolus vulgaris', is the earliest bean we could find. The Contender is tasty, stringless, and it takes only 40 days from sowing to harvest. You just won't find an earlier bean. Contender will tolerate hot temperatures and mildew and is very productive. Like other snap beans, Contender is stringless and excellent cooked or eaten right out of the garden. Snap beans are ready to pick when the pod "snaps" or breaks in half cleanly.
