The Strange and Beautiful Collection
What do you get?
A specially selected collection of nine plants that we rotate every few weeks, as the plants within this collection must meet VERY strict criteria. They must be either strange, beautiful or BOTH.
Every few weeks we bring together a collection of our absolute favourite herbs that we adore. Most of the plants that we grow are either strange, beautiful or both, and these are our favourites. Below are the plants that you will receive when ordering the collection this week!
The herbs that you will be enjoying:
Oregano Hot & Spicy - this is Oregano but not as we know it! This fantastic plant is in the same family as traditional Oregano but has an amazing fiery kick, that is perfect for all kinds of Italian and Mexican dishes.
Thyme 'Archers Gold' - this bushy variety of thyme has gorgeous golden foliage that look stunning in your growing space, as well as a delicious, subtle lemony flavour.
Garlic Chives - this unusual Chive variety is amazing, as it gives you a delicious, garlic flavour within the foliage while also providing big white flowers in the summer!
Woolly Thyme - this variety is truly a strange but beautiful variety, with woolly foliage that creates a beautiful carpet effect in your garden, and it looks so pretty when dew settles on it in the morning.
Thyme 'Silver Queen' - this plant really is unusual, as the lush leaves look almost silver in the sunlight due to its beautiful variegated leaves! This is a great variety for your garden all year round, as well as giving you beautiful flowers during the warmer months.
Strawberry Spinach - a unique and attractive edible plant that produces tender spinach-like leaves and bright red berry-like fruits. The nutritious leaves are perfect for salads and cooking, while the decorative fruits add ornamental interest to the garden!
Golden Thyme - a gorgeous, hardy evergreen variety of thyme that actually turns brighter gold as the seasons pass. It smells amazing too and lights up your herb garden.
Lemon Verbena - this variety really does smell strongly of sweet lemon and provides a delicious citrus flavour that is perfect for using to make herbal tea, bake a lemon drizzle cake or just to admire for its vibrant green leaves.
Thyme 'Tabor' - this Thyme variety is genuinely unusual, providing a great, evergreen groundcover across the whole year with big, bold foliage that looks really stunning in your growing space.

How big are the plants?
All herbs are supplied in 9cm pots. They will be freshly picked for your order. The condition of the plants is our primary concern when fulfilling your order. The foliage will differ in size throughout the season and may be clipped prior to dispatch. The herbs are not soft-grown and have spent time in unheated conditions. They are a product designed not just to last a few days but to be grown on by yourselves and supply flavour for months to come.
