**This is the size I've sold in past years. Same size, or possibly a little larger, and same price.** Aloe vera is a succulent plant with a clear gel inside the leaves that is used often used as an alternative medical treatment for burns and skin care. Grow inside in bright light, or outside in shade in warm weather, watering every 2-3 weeks. Aloe vera does not like wet feet. To use, remove leaves at the base with a sharp knife, then put in a sandwich bag, wrap in foil, and store in the fridge to reuse for 4 or 5 days.

I have a variety of colors and textures of alpaca fleece, from cloud-soft baby fiber to sturdier old-gal fleece great for outerwear, rugs or similar use. Prices depend on quality and volume purchased - this listed price is a deposit, contact me for samples and colors/amounts/prices available. I have both skirted and unskirted fiber available - unlike sheep wool, alpaca doesn't need to be washed until the final product - it is so clean! Skirted fleece has had the short and lesser quality bits removed, along with the hay, pine needles, and occasional stick :)

1/2 gallon bag of young and tender greens. Crisp, with a surprising, smooth kind of heat that makes you want to eat another bite. We plant a new crop every few weeks to avoid the bitterness that comes when this plant wants to go to seed. Arugula adds a pleasant, non-bitter bite to mixed salads. It can also be braised for a few seconds just before serving to "green up" asian style dishes.

These reusable shopping bags are made from woven plastic feed sacks. I choose sacks with nice pictures, and cut and sew them into a sturdy bag with handles. The bags vary slightly in size and shape, about 15" wide and 14" tall, and the bottom is sewn approximately 6-8" wide to easily accommodate lots of items. The straps can comfortably sling over a shoulder, and these bags are very sturdy! If you have a preference for a particular bag pictured, contact me for availability or custom sewing.

This heavy bloomer gets its name from the way each flower bud swells before its starry petals unfold. Balloon flowers are one of the easiest perennials you'll ever grow, and they bloom in profusion in mid to late summer, when many other perennials are beginning to fade. The plants form a low, neat mound and bear 2- to 3-inch cuplike blossoms. Balloon flowers are a cottage garden standard, excellent for cutting. To make the flowers last in the vase, sear the stems with a match or candle flame immediately after cutting. They thrive in full sun or light shade in well-drained garden soil. They appreciate a little afternoon shade in zones 7-8. You won't find a more carefree perennial! Just work a little slow-release fertilizer into the soil in spring, and pick off the flowers as they fade to encourage more blooms. Moderate drought conditions aren't a problem, but it helps to water the plants deeply when the soil dries out too much or if drought conditions persist. Balloon flowers are seldom bothered by insects, and they are very cold-hardy. Plan the plant's position carefully and mark it to avoid weeding it out in early spring, for spring growth is late to appear.

Penstemons come from areas with rough growing conditions and should never be exposed to wet or damp earth. A thin, rocky soil in full sun is best. Penstemon species are often used in xeriscape landscaping, as many are native to desert or alpine regions and thus quite hardy. Native Americans long used Penstemon roots to relieve toothache. Foliage is evergreen in warmer climates. Tubular flowers are in clusters atop strong stems, somewhat like foxglove, and blooming from spring into summer. Plants are best set out in groups so that a mass of flowers is in view. Cut back each stem after flowering to a place just above a set of leaves that show new growth. You may get another flowering later in the summer or early fall. Wait until all chance of a freeze is over, then cut back your penstemon, leaving stems that are just 6 inches long. This way, the plant will bush out and have a more compact form.
