<h2><strong>Artisjok zaden VIOLET DE PROVENCE</strong></h2> <h2><span style="color: #f80000;" class=""><strong>Prijs voor Pakket van +-20 (1g) zaden.</strong></span></h2> <p>Artisjok ‘Violet de Provence’ is een van de meest traditionele Italiaanse groenten. Het is bekend onder verschillende namen, waaronder Violetta di Provenza en Poivrade. Deze heerlijke middelgrote artisjok ontwikkelt rijke violetpaarse bollen op distelachtige planten.<br>Zaaien van maart tot augustus en oogsten tussen mei en juli. De planten blijven minimaal drie jaar productief.<br><br>Weinig gerechten zijn zo bevredigend om te eten als de artisjok van de aarde. Doop de blaadjes in een warme balsamico-spekdressing en word verliefd op een kleine distel!</p> <p><strong>Sowing: </strong></p> <p class="">Sow under glass February to March or sow outdoors once the soil has warmed for cropping the following year. Sow the seeds at a depth of 6mm (¼in), they should germinate in 10 to14 days. <br>Transplant in June to crop in autumn and the following May. They need a position that receives eight hours or more sun per day. <br>Seed sown outdoors flowers the year after sowing. Sow direct when the soil has warmed up in mid-spring for cropping the following year. Sow in free-draining soil, 2 to 3 seeds in stations 30cm (12in) apart. Thin out so that there is one good plant every 60cm (24in). The thinnings can be transplanted. <br>Artichokes need constant moisture: water well. They thrive in moderate climates near the sea where the soil has a high salt content. Seaweed is said to be the best fertiliser possible for these plants.</p> <p><strong>Cultivation: <br></strong>Keep the plants well watered until established. Apply a mulch around the stems in May. During the summer months hoe regularly and apply a liquid fertiliser at fortnightly intervals. Water thoroughly when the weather is dry. In late autumn cut down the stems and cover the crowns with bracken, leaves or straw. Remove this protective covering in April.</p> <p><strong>Harvesting: <br></strong>Artichokes come in different sizes: baby, medium, and jumbo. All three sizes grow on the same plant. The jumbo grows on the centre stalk, the medium grow on the sides, and the babies at the base. They are not merely immature globes. The globes are harvested before the blossoms open to ensure the best flavour. <br>The size of a mature artichoke is dependent upon its placement on the plant. Those at the top can be enormous while those at the base, shaded by dense leaves, may grow no larger than a ping-pong ball. <br>As soon as the petals begin to open, they are overripe, no matter the size. After harvesting the main head, secondary heads will appear and these too can be used. <br>Expected yield per mature plant: 10 to 12 heads. Productive life: 4 years</p> <p><strong>Storing: <br></strong>Artichokes can be stored briefly in plastic bags to preserve their moisture content.</p> <p><strong>Rotation considerations: <br></strong>Avoid following Jerusalem artichoke or sunflower.</p> <p><strong>Companion Planting: <br></strong>Good companions: Sunflower and Tarragon. <br>Bad companions: None</p> <p><strong>Other Uses: <br></strong>Artichokes provide wonderful shades of green when used as a natural dye.<br>Used in the garden they add structure and height to flower beds. In late summer they have beautiful violet-blue flowers.</p> <p><strong>Origin: <br></strong>The origin of artichokes is unknown, though they are said to have come from the Maghreb (North Africa), where they are still found in the wild state; the seeds of artichokes, probably cultivated, were found during the excavation of Mons Claudianus in Egypt during the Roman period. Globe artichokes are known to have been cultivated at Naples around the middle of the 9th century. <br>The Dutch introduced artichokes to England, where they grew in Henry VIII's garden at Newhall in 1530.</p> <p><strong>Nomenclature: <br></strong>The various names of the artichoke in European languages all ultimately come from Arabic al-kharshuf, through a Northern Italian dialect word, articiocco.<br>The Arabic term Ardi-Shoki which means "ground thorny" is a folk etymology of the English name.</p> <p><strong>The word Artichoke may also refer to: <br></strong>The Cardoon, a related species. <br>Jerusalem artichoke, a species of sunflower<br>Chinese artichoke, a species of woundwort<br>Project Artichoke, a CIA operation</p> <script src="//cdn.public.n1ed.com/G3OMDFLT/widgets.js"></script>

<h2><strong>Tomato Seed GRAPPOLO</strong></h2> <h2 class=""><span style="color: #ff0a0a;"><strong>Price for Package of 10 seeds.</strong></span></h2> <p>Old Italian variety, very vigorous plant with an indeterminate growth bearing. Produces about 5 fruits per layer that are globe-shaped and weigh about 200-300 g. When ripe the colour varies from dark green to bright red. Excellent flavour and consistency.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>We take tomatoes for granted now, and it would be quite difficult to imagine Italian cuisine without them, but it took Italians a very long time to accept them: Though they were introduced as ornamental plants in the 1500s, the earliest evidence of their use in the kitchen comes from Francesco Gaudentio's Il Panunto Toscano, published in 1705.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>A couple of observations on selecting tomatoes: Italians divide them into two classes: insalatari and da salsa.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Insalatari, as one might expect, are salad tomatoes, to be eaten raw. People generally select them not-too-ripe, in other words quite firm, with streaks of green running through them, and with a lively acidity that complements the flavor of the greens in the salad. Pomodori da salsa, on the other hand, are for cooking and should be ripe -- an explosive red, rich, and slightly sweet too.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>These are Pomodori a grappolo, tomatoes sold by the bunch mostly destined towards salads, which are standard market fare, sun ripened in summer and hothouse in winter.</p> <script src="//cdn.public.n1ed.com/G3OMDFLT/widgets.js"></script>
