Erfurter Orangefarbige is a variety of CALENDULA bred specifically for its medicinal virtues. Although the whole plant has long been used as a culinary and medicinal herb, the bright orange flowers alone are recommended for kitchen use today, since the leaves are very bitter. The flowers are mild tasting and slightly sweet, and can be used both in savoury and sweet dishes . When dried, its petals, which have been called ‘poor man’s saffron’, can be used to create a natural dye. H30 x 30 cm. Packet contains 45 seeds

 NASTURTIUM Blue Pepe is a unique European variety bred specifically for culinary use. The name is derived from its wonderful steel-blue leaves with purplish undersides.

The flavour becomes spicier when the flowers are grown in sunnier, hotter weather. The flowers are less intensely flavoured than the leaves but they add a dramatic, colourful zing to any recipe.Plant size: H20 x 20 cm. Packet contains 10 seeds
