Beginner's Herb Garden |
Carefully selected for their ease of growing, this set of classic culinary herbs includes six sturdy plants to pop right into your garden or containers. Brush the leaves or pick a few to enjoy their scents and flavors while you're in the garden. Of course, having fresh herbs is endlessly useful in the kitchen. Our collection is a perfect way to start an herb garden and makes a fine gift for a beginner gardener or anyone who enjoys cooking with the best ingredients. One plant of each variety listed below, six plants total. - Fine Chives (Allium schoenoprasum) -- A variety with more refined and tender leaves that tend to grow faster after cutting. Add the leaves to salads or snip them into small pieces at the last minute over a bowl of hot soup, scrambled eggs, or Potatoes.
- Greek Oregano (Origanum vulgare hirtum) -- A staple in the herb garden that's quite carefree once established. Provides a robust, zesty flavoring to meats, shellfish, Eggplant, Peppers, and egg dishes.
- Golden Lemon Thyme (Thymus x citriodorus 'Golden Lemon') -- Delightful for both the kitchen and the garden with its lemon scent and bright golden-edged leaves. A natural partner with any chicken dish and adds a lemony lift to vegetables, rice, and casseroles.
- Basil 'Caesar' -- Large, succulent leaves up to three inches long. Plants are slow to flower, affording a long harvest of tender, very flavorful foliage. Excellent for aromatic pestos, sauces, and tomato salads!
- Italian Parsley (Petroselinum crispum) -- Also called Flat-leaf Parsley, this variety's sweet, strong flavor makes it the chef's favorite for everyday cooking. Superb in any slow-cooking dish; rich in both flavor and vitamins.
- Culinary Sage (Salvia officinalis) -- A traditional herb for poultry stuffing and perfect with pork, sausage, and cheese. Lovely, soft gray foliage.
