Default Chinese water chestnuts, Yacon, Tithonia, Chaya.

I have fresh live Chinese water chestnuts.
These are still very hard to find plants.
They tastes amazing compared to the ones you find in cans, and make beautiful water plants for fish ponds or tanks.
They'll grow in anything that holds a few inches of water and are extremely productive.
The tops can be cut back a couple times during the year and are a great edible livestock fodder or garden bed mulch.
1 corm will spread into many plants.
10 live chestnuts $18


Chaya trees, aka Tree spinach. Its an edible Fast growing perennial tree that grows up to 8 feet.
Very ornamental looking with beautiful palmate leaves and small white flowers.
I'm thinning out the plants that I have so here is a great chance to get hold of hard to find edible plants.
3 6" cuttings, they root fast.
$13

Tithonia Diversifolia. A beautiful plant that will reach 10-15 feet tall!
It has large dark leaves and throughout the cool months produces masses of large yellow "sunflowers"
that smell like honey. Its a must have for any gardener; it makes a beautiful hedge or wind break.
It grows VERY fast. It also makes a very good mulch for garden beds.
Use it as fodder for livestock, or the leaves for chickens too. Its highly nutritious.
The flowers can be made into a tea as well.
Plants are sterile so they wont seed everywhere.

6- 6" inch stem cuttings.
for $16

I you want anything just message me. $1. SHIPPING FOR EVERYTHING!!
Say what you want and I can send you a paypal invoice.
