2026 Vegetable Garden

The 2026 Garden Plan

Burpee Seed Order

Burpee's Supersteak Tomato

Super size tomato-with most fruits weighing in at 2 lb. Burpee bred, this is the original with "beefsteak" flavor and meaty texture. Interderminate

Heatmaster Tomato

When the heat is on, this tomato shines. 'Heatmaster' marches on in sweltering heat and humidity producing large, delicious fruits. While other tomatoes surrender to high heat, you can enjoy a steady supply of fresh-from-the-garden beefsteaks. Compact, determinate plants are great for containers. Smart pick for Southern gardens.

Baby Boomer Cherry Tomato Seeds

Big bumper crops of delicious cherry tomatoes. Wildly prolific, each patio-ready bush unleashes a bumper crop of 300 1", 1 oz. little sweeties bursting with great big flavor. GROWING TIP: Plants call for caging. Determinate and container friendly.

Burpee's Best Squash Seeds

Burpee Exclusive. Hail, the new Zucchini King, the new triple-crowner ruler of the zucchini patch. Brings zuke-lovers an earlier harvest, out of this world yields and exceptional vigor. Burpees Best is your go-to zuke for rich, buttery flavor and refined texture. Spine-free plants yield plentiful full-size 6-8" deep-green fruits. I will hand pollinate (save male flowers in zip lock bag in refrigerator until ready for use) and stake them and grow vertically.

Not sure why I ordered two types of beans. But I guess I will try them both to see which I like best.

Desperado Bush Beans

Beans, glorious beans and in abundance. Bountiful 16 to 20 inch plants produce dense sets of super-tasty 5-1/2" dark-green pods. Thanks to slow-to-develop seeds, beans have more energy to produce taste-boosting sugars and flavonoids. Upright, well-adapted, bush-style plants don't mind the heat; highly resistant to mosaic virus. These are supposed to be container friendly.

Blue Lake Superior Bush Beans

Superior performance meets timeless taste with this improved take on classic "Blue Lake". Huge yields produce 4-6" pods with the flavor you love. Stronger plants are resistant to rust, curly top and mosaic virus without sacrificing quality. This incredible enhancement proves that sometimes you can make a beloved variety better without sacrificing what made gardeners treasure the original. These are supposed to be container friendly.

Burpless Beauty Cucumber Seeds

The super-productive vines yield loads of long, deep green cucumbers that stay crisp longer than any other weve tried. Pick and slice to reveal the pure white, firm flesh with an exceptionally small seed cavity. The thin-skinned cukes have the right balance of crispness and juiciness-and these mild beauties are easy on the digestion. Disease-resistant plants set fruits over several months.

Candy Apple Sweet Pepper Seeds

Early-maturing, large 5" fruits are deep red and sugary sweet in just 71 days. A flavor-rich pepper that excels in salads, as snacks, and when roasted, baked or sauteed.

Banana Boom Sweet Pepper Seeds

'Banana Boom' lives up to its name with plants loaded with dozens of sweet banana peppers. Yellow fruits supply deep savory perfection for pickling, while red-ripe peppers turn surprisingly sweet for fresh eating, stuffing or slicing. This productive powerhouse also shines when roasted, making it the ultimate versatile pepper. These are supposed to be container friendly.

Heatwave Blend Lettuce Seeds

Feast both your eyes and your palate on lettuces that thrive in the heat and remain productive and tasty longer than all others. Our choice"slow bolt" varieties include green and red crisphead, green romaine and multiple textures and colors of looseleaf.

Fabuloso Radish Seeds

First to arrive, first in flavor, first in crunch. Our earliest radish is quick to sprout, yielding flavorful, crazily crunchy, glossy, scarlet 1" globes. Fabuloso brings crispy peppery zest to salads and hearty dishes. Prime candidate for pickling. Resow every 14 days for a non-stop harvest.

Arizona Mix Vinca Seeds

Vinca Arizona Mix has the widest color range of any vinca mix. A rainbow of all vinca colors including reds, 1 1/2" blooms with contrasting "starry" eyes. Drought tolerant, loves heat. Space plants 8-10" apart. Mature Height 10-12 inches

Big Red Geranium Seeds

Bright, bold 5" flower heads are twice the size of other hybrid geraniums grown from seed. Removing old flowers encourages more bloom. Space 12-15" apart in beds and borders or 8" apart in containers.

Cut & Come Again Mixed Colors Zinnia Seeds

Zinnias add bold, vibrant color to gardens. Cut & Come Again Mix has long-stemmed flowers 2 1/2" across in a blend of pink, bright scarlet, yellow, salmon, white and more. The more you cut, the more they bloom, and they keep blooming from midsummer until frost. Heat-loving and very easy to grow. Great for cutting as well as in the garden. Mature Height 24-30 inches
