Shipped with USPS First Class Package with tracking, NOT WITH A STAMP WHERE SEEDS CAN BE CRUSHED. Lactuca virosa grows as a biennial, leafy stalk stemming from a large brown taproot. It starts as a low rosette at first, but extends with age, typically measuring up to four feet in height. It is a wild relative of lactuca sativa, which contains the group of cultivars that are commonly used in salads. Virosa, one of several species known as wild lettuce, is sometimes used in salads too.But it is quite bitter and therefore less palatable. All wild lettuce species have this quality, but it has been bred out of lactuca sativa over hundreds of years of cultivation. More so than an edible, virosa was used by doctors as a medicinal herb. The plant exudes a sticky, off-white latex when damaged. Used as tincture, drank in tea or eaten as dried latex balls, wild lettuce was used was used quite commonly in Europe and America during the days prior to modern pharma. Growing information: Lactuca virosa prefers sandy or loamy soils but is not particularly picky. You can start your seeds indoors in the early spring to get a head start on the growing season. The seeds do enjoy cold temperatures during germination. Plant your wild lettuce seeds on the surface of your potting mixture and just barely cover them with soil. Cover the pots with saran wrap until germination begins. They can be transplanted when they are a few inches. This is best off being done before the temperatures get too hot. Seeds can also be sown directly outdoors. But they are made to be carried by wind so you may lose a few if you have strong winds. To prevent this, make sure the soil stays moist so it will hold together. These plants prefer full sun. They are not frost tender and will return the following year.

1 RARE STRIPED HALALI SUGAR CANE (2 Nodes)- Live Plant cutting by World Seed

Striped Halali is a rare heirloom Hawaiian sugar cane variety with the coolest of colored stems and a juicy sweetness to match. This variety is a lot like Hilo Buddha, which we also offer, but it remains flat instead of bulging between nodes. This variety is very hard to find. It was almost lost. These are thriving plants grown in the Florida sun, which is a perfect environment for sugar cane. Sugar cane is a type of grass, and it is easy-to-grow and fast-growing once it gets established. Established sugar cane multiplies rapidly by sending out new shoots from the base. Sugar cane will grow outdoors year-round in zones 9 and up, but you can grow in zone 8 with protection and anywhere else by bringing it in for the winter months. Cover the base with a thick layer of mulch, even up to several feet thick for added frost protection. They are said to be hardy to about 20 degrees Fahrenheit, and a good layer of mulch, especially one that is warmed by active decomposition, can help keep your roots warm even past an air temperature of 20 degrees. You can also grow them in big containers if you need to move them indoors. A 50/50 mix of potting soil and perlite will help keep big pots light for moving, so long as you keep them well watered in the hot months. You will get a 4-6″ cutting with at least 2 nodes. Many of our stalks already have aerial roots. Sugar cane roots rather easily as long as it does not dry out or be allowed to mold. We will make fresh cuttings or ship rooted cuttings, depending on stock and time of year. Growing Information: Sugar Cane roots easily in most growing medium Coco coir or peat moss will work well. You just need to keep the soil moist. Spraying with a copper solution can help fight off mold. But the cutting will usually root pretty easily if they don’t dry out or get too wet. Once established, sugar cane likes a well-draining, fertile sandy soil and full sun. They will survive with less sun, but they thrive in hot, humid environments.
