Edible, medicinal, and native plants for the Pacific Northwest
We spent 13 years building an abundant fruit forest, annual veggie beds, perennial medicinal herbs, and a healthy mixed hardwood-coniferous forest and now we’ve sold our property to the next stewards so that we can begin a new homesteading project in Vermont closer to our best friends and their kids.
Don’t worry - we plan to keep this website up and running so that our customers can reference what we’ve written about our plants!
We’ll let you know once we re-start a farm in Vermont!
Rose Of Sharon
Rose of Sharon is a hardy deciduous shrub with edible leaves and flowers. It is bred for showy and colorful flowers. The leaves make a really nice cooling and mucilaginous infusion. They are also delicious raw or cooked.
The shrub can grow up to 10 feet, but usually is smaller in our climate. It prefers full sun.
