Oriental Chrysanthemum Chopsuey Greens

This form of edible Chrysanthemum has a sweet herbal taste; pick the first tender leaves about 40 days after sowing. Leaves are at their best when they are young and picking leaves regularly will encourage a bushier plant. Older leaves can become bitter as they age, or if the plant is left to flower. All is not lost if your plant blooms, as the flower petals are also edible and along with the leaves are used in a variety of Asian dishes. Plants dislike high temperatures so some degree of shade is recommended in summer.

Plant spacing has a huge influence on bulb size. For bigger onions space out to 10cm.

Plants love the heat and can withstand a dry spell but they still require regular watering (around 2cm of water per week.) Although pods grow up to 14cm, they are commonly picked at around 7-8cm. Cut pods regularly to promote a greater yield.

Nasturtium Baby Red

Released last year, Baby Red is a compact Nasturtium that is best suited to pots and bedding. It has a mass of lovely deep-red flowers that look fantastic and sit more upright and mounded as opposed to trailing Nasturtium. Keep a pot in your herb garden or on the patio within easy reach, making it handy to pick a few spicy blooms that can be added to salads to give them that extra bit of zing.

Microgreens Mix

There has been so much focus in the past few years on nutrition and the value of vegetables and raw food. Microgreens have certainly earned their place way up at the top of the list. Often referred to as Natures Super Foods and rightly so, they packed with powerful vitamins and minerals. A study that involved scientific analysis of the vitamin and phytochemical content of 25 types of microgreens, found that there were higher concentrations of vitamins and carotenoids (precursors to vitamin A) than the full-grown versions of the plants! High value nutrition is not the only thing they have going for them... they look fantastic as a garnish and are a tasty addition to any meal (even the good ole fashion sarnie at lunchtime). This is a blend of the most popular microgreens, it may vary from time to time as supply dictates, but any of the following can be expected:

Mesembryanthemum Harlequin Mix
