Collected by seedsman Nikolay Vavilov from the arid volcanic Houran Plateau of southwest Syria, northwest Jordan, Hourani does grow in our Michigan humidity; however, compared to many wheats we grow, the yield is very low. Wanting to eventually bake with it, I grow this landrace to select for adaptation to less arid growing conditions.
This fascinating article on Hourani's seed collector Nikolay Vavilov is worth the read.
