The Cottage Garden Assortment - Seed kit gift box

between an ornamental flower garden and a domestic kitchen garden, with fruit-, herb-, and vegetable patches and maybe even berry-, and nut producing hedges, all together creating a colourful environment.

This seed kit contains 6 plant varieties for the traditional cottage garden:

• Peppermint (Mentha piperta)
  Is an old, traditional herb-, tea-, and medicinal plant with refreshing aroma.
• Lovage (Levisticum officinale)
  Grows into an erect shrub of impressive size and has a wonderfully aromatic and strong flavour. It is an old medicinal-, and herbal plant, which is a 'must-have' for any kitchen garden.
• Rhubarb chard 'volcano' (Beta vulgaris var. cicla)
  Is a beautiful old cultivar with glowing red stalks and green leaves. It tastes delicious and adds decorum to the garden.
• Parsnip 'half-length' (Pastinaca sativa)
  Back in the days, the Romans introduced parsnips to all corners of Europe. This popular root vegetable is very easy to grow and its long, white roots develop a wonderful mild, yet aromatic flavour.
• Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia)
  Is a low shrub that is very common in the rocky coastal regions of the Mediterranean and is known for its uniquely scented purple flowers. It is very popular both with people and bees.
• Love-in-a-mist (Nigella damascena)
  Is a delightful delicate flowering plant with blue and white flowers, which are a welcome addition to any flowerbed. Its seeds have an intense scent reminiscent of woodruff and therefore taste really nice in puddings and desserts.

The seeds of each variety are packaged in a separate sachet.

The seed sachets and detailed growing instructions in German and English are packed in a beautiful gift box - a great, sustainable gift for the garden. Any plant lover will be pleased.
