Rouge De Bordeaux Wheat

Hard red winter wheat that dates back several hundred years to the Bordeaux region of France. This awnless grain (that is, without the long hair-like structures present on many grains) does well on clay soils. High protein. Often mentioned in breadmaking discussions. Makes rich brown bread with mellow flavor and tantalizing aroma. Plant in the fall. Organic.

These heritage wheats are proving to be more digestible for many people who cannot eat modern grains. Approximately 600 seeds per 1oz. Sow at 2oz. per 100 sq. ft., 3-4# per 1000 sq. ft., or 100-125# per acre.
