Inventory snapshot · · 4-inch sales adjusted
What we’re growing
Four-inch plants reflect the October 3, 2026 count adjusted for sales reported October 7, 2026; ready 6-pack counts remain from October 3, 2026. This dated snapshot is not a reservation or a guarantee that every plant is sale-ready. Varieties outside the original list had zero stock; growing starts and packs are labeled separately. Text to confirm availability before arranging pickup.
Plant types: F1, open-pollinated & heirloom
- F1 hybrid
- The first generation of a deliberate cross. Seeds saved from an F1 plant may not grow like the parent.
- Open-pollinated (non-F1)
- Often what people mean by “regular.” Established varieties can grow true to type from saved seed when kept from crossing with other varieties.
- Heirloom
- An open-pollinated variety maintained and passed down over time. Not every open-pollinated variety is an heirloom.
Developing selection: a line still being stabilized. Some traits may vary between plants; do not assume saved seed will grow true to type.
These labels describe the named variety’s breeding type, not pot size or whether an individual plant was started from seed or a cutting. “Type not confirmed” means we have not verified the classification; it does not mean non-hybrid. Mixed listings are labeled “Varies by variety.”
Variety references are linked on plant-detail pages. If saving seed matters to you, text us to confirm the seed-packet or stock details for your batch.

A Clearwater note
The list changes because Florida seasons do.
Kale and cilantro belong to a different weather window than basil, eggplant, and squash. We would rather offer a smaller seasonal list than pretend everything belongs in the garden year-round.
