Life cycle: Biennial

Maca has in recent decades become popular far beyond its high-altitude Andean homeland. Domesticated in Peru and grown at over 10,000 feet in elevation, maca is not an easy plant to grow — but that hasn't stopped people from trying! A member of the Brassicaceae (cabbage) family, maca is the only tuberous member of the Lepidium genus, most well-known for the spicy-leafed herb garden cress (Lepidium sativum). Maca roots look like small tan radishes, they taste like a strange cross between turnip and butterscotch, and outside of Peru they are mostly consumed dried and powdered as a beverage or an ingredient in other dishes, like bread. Maca has become famous as a "superfood" primarily because of its reputation as a medicine for sexual dysfunction, particularly in men. Many people now use it as a general tonic for reproductive health. It is believed to increase libido and improve sperm counts and motility. Additionally, maca is said to help deal with osteoperosis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, menopause, and memory issues. Here is a helpful article from the journal Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine detailing the health and nutritional properties of maca [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3184420/]. We haven't yet grown this ourselves (these seeds come from our friends at Sheffield's Seed Company in Locke, NY, who say they got them from the Netherlands), but we are excited to try them with you!

GROWING TIPS: Maca is very challenging to grow due to its adaptation for a very particular high-altitude climate. Additionally, germination is not very high on this lot of seeds — we're not sure if that's because of the seeds themselves or because they don't germinate well under standard germination test conditions. The great William Whitson of Cultivariable in Washington state used to grow maca and his website contains the best information we can find on growing it outside of its native range. You can read his detailed write-up here: https://www.cultivariable.com/instructions/andean-roots-tubers/how-to-grow-maca/

Good product
Size: Large, Color: Black
Solid and a typical fit for tux slacks. The coat was vibrant the creases from folding came out super easy and theirs a nice how to guide for ironing/pressing and tie guide. The package is a total outfit bowtie and cufflinks were in mine and they both seem nice and modern.

Ddlivering a complete formal outfit!
Size: Medium, Color: Graphite
The YND “Your New Day” three‑piece slim‑fit tuxedo arrives with a matching bow tie, delivering a complete formal outfit without the need for additional purchases. The bow tie is constructed from the same 100 % polyester lining as the suit, ensuring consistent texture and durability; it matches the colour palette and finish, so the ensemble looks intentionally coordinated rather than patched together. Material‑wise the outer shell combines 79 % polyester with 21 % viscose. This blend offers a subtle sheen appropriate for evening events while remaining breathable enough for prolonged wear. The 100 % polyester lining slides smoothly over the body, resists pilling, and holds its shape after repeated cleaning. Chrome‑finished buttons on both the exterior and interior pockets reinforce the impression of careful craftsmanship, which the brand backs with a claim of more than 300 production steps per garment. The cut is modern and athletic. A slim silhouette with 3‑D draping creates a sharp profile without restricting movement. Whether you are navigating a crowded reception, dancing at a wedding, or stepping between meetings, the suit permits natural motion. The shawl lapel adds a timeless element that softens the otherwise contemporary lines, while the inclusion of a bow tie introduces a classic formal cue that broadens the outfit’s applicability across a range of dress codes. From a value perspective the bundled bow tie eliminates the typical $50‑$80 outlay required for a comparable designer accessory. The package therefore delivers a ready‑to‑wear, polished look at a single price point, aligning with the pragmatic expectations of a company director who prioritises efficiency and cost‑effectiveness. Sizing guidance is straightforward: select a size whose chest measurement exceeds your own by four to five inches (for example, a 39‑inch chest would correspond to a size M with a 43‑inch chest opening). The product description advises checking the supplied size chart and, if uncertainty remains, providing height, weight, chest and waist measurements for a personalized recommendation. In summary, the YND tuxedo with its integrated bow tie offers a compelling mix of modern tailoring, material reliability, and sensible economics. It satisfies the core requirements of a professional wardrobe: a sharp aesthetic, functional comfort, and a complete accessory set delivered in one package. For a director seeking a dependable, stylish option without superfluous extras, this ensemble merits serious consideration. It aligns with corporate image standards while respecting budget constraints, making it a investment for leadership attire.
