About this box
No comparison exists between a dusty supermarket jar and fresh herbs picked seconds before cooking. This collection creates an instant kitchen garden — five essential flavours, reliable and productive, packed with aromatic oils. From the woody Mediterranean warmth of Oregano and Thyme to the bright citrus lift of fresh Coriander, everything needed for fresh herbs on every meal, whether grown on a sunny windowsill or in a dedicated herb patch.
Growing Guide
Herbs fall into two camps. Annuals — Basil and Coriander are sown fresh each year; give basil the warmest, sunniest spot you have, and sow coriander little and often, as it is quick to run to seed in hot weather. Perennials — Oregano, Thyme and Chives come back every year. Oregano and thyme want sun and sharp drainage and suit a pot or the edge of a path; chives are happy in a little shade and give edible lavender pompom flowers in early summer.
Full instructions are printed on every packet.
Complete the Potager Look
Herbs look beautiful mixed with edible flowers. Nasturtium 'Alaska Apricot' adds peppery edible flowers and cream-marbled leaves that trail over the edges of a herb planter. Calendula 'Art Shades' contributes orange petals for salads and rice, while also attracting the hoverflies that eat the aphids that attack herbs.
Arrives in signature eco-friendly packaging — the perfect gift for anyone who loves to cook with fresh ingredients.
