Plant Once And Harvest For Years: Here Are 8 Smart Ideas

If you love the idea of growing your own food but don’t really care for all this replanting, read on.

Here are 8 plants that only require planting once!

1. Raspberries

The best part about growing raspberry bushes? You can grow a huge number of delicious berries with minimal effort. The assortment ranges from red and yellow to purple, black or even golden colored fruit!

2. Asparagus

The asparagus is so easy to grow, and once you have this beautiful plant in your garden it will be an annual addition.

However, the first few years are needed before getting a decent harvest because of its 4-year growing period.

3. Tomatoes

Tomatoes are one of the most popular produce you can grow over and over again. They’re particularly easy to maintain, as all that’s needed is soil with nutrients in it – they don’t need much else besides water!

4. Kale

Kale is a leafy green that can provide you with fresh crops every year. If harvested the whole stalk, just cut about 2 inches above soil level to allow new leaves time to grow back in before chopping again!

5. Rhubarb

This plant is also picky about water and temperature. You’ll need to do some dividing at the end of season (or before if you’re feeling ambitious!) in order keep grow rates high!

6. Strawberries

Strawberries are one of those fruits that produce a lot of fruit for long periods. You might not get too much the first season, but eventually your plants will give you more than enough strawberries!

7. Pineapples

Pineapple is a fruit with an endless supply of sweetness. Starting your own pineapple plant can take some time, so make sure to keep the soil barely moist and give them plenty of sunlight in order for it grow well.

8. Artichokes

Artichokes are one of those veggies that will grow back every year, even if you cut it. However, this plant can be downright invasive so make sure to choose where you place yours!
