Botanically, the plant belongs to the family Brassicaceae, the subfamily Brassicoideae and the genus \u003cem\u003eBarbarea\u003c\/em\u003e.

As early as medieval herbals, the plant was mentioned as a reliable winter green.

This undemanding clover species originates from southern Europe and the western Mediterranean and can now be found growing wild in meadows, pastures, and along roadsides worldwide. In agriculture, crimson clover is primarily cultivated as an animal fodder plant and as a summer and winter cover crop. Due to its ability to fix nitrogen, protect against erosion, and improve soil structure and fertility, this plant is often used in winter cover crops and as a green manure. The fast-growing plant is ideal for promoting biodiversity, providing high biomass, suppressing weeds, and stabilizing the soil through the deep penetration of its roots.

In the wild it inhabits rocky slopes, open dry grasslands and light scrub. As a classic monastic and medicinal herb it was cultivated early in European herb and cottage gardens, valued for its aromatic oils and its importance for pollinators. Botanically it belongs to the mint family (Lamiaceae), the subfamily Nepetoideae and the genus \u003cem\u003eSalvia\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts earliest documented mention dates to the 13th century: in \u003cem\u003eDe proprietatibus rerum\u003c\/em\u003e (c. 1230–1240), Bartholomaeus Anglicus describes clary sage, making it one of the earliest recorded fragrant and medicinal plants of medieval Europe. From the High Middle Ages to the early modern period it played a notable role in perfumery, wine and liqueur refinement, women’s herbal medicine, respiratory and digestive applications, and monastic healing traditions. Its colourful bracts were used in herb bundles, protective house blessings and incense rituals, symbolising purification, protection and mental clarity. In Mediterranean folk medicine it appeared in salves, tinctures, skincare and aromatic oils.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the 18th century it spread through botanical gardens and herbals across Central Europe and became a cherished plant of fragrance and cottage gardens. Its essential oils served as a base note in early European perfumery and continue to shape traditional fragrance and incense recipes today. Today, clary sage is regarded as a characterful, drought‑tolerant perennial for naturalistic plantings, fragrance gardens and biodiversity‑oriented designs.

It also enhances risottos, potato and grain dishes, light sauces, marinades and dressings, works well in omelettes, quiches and savoury bakes, and adds depth to wok dishes, curries and Mediterranean vegetable pans. It complements fish, seafood, pulses and light meat dishes, rounds off clear broths and stocks, and provides a fresh aromatic finish when sprinkled over warm dishes. It also develops its full aroma in herb oils, flavoured vinegars and savoury spreads.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn cultivation, 'Gewöhnlicher Schnitt' is uncomplicated: it prefers sunny to semi‑shaded sites, humus‑rich, evenly moist soil and regular cutting to encourage new growth. The plants are robust, sturdy and provide fresh greens over many months. It grows reliably in pots as well as in beds. If overwintered, the second year produces flowering stems and seeds for home seed saving. Cutting celery attracts beneficial insects, grows quickly, competes well with weeds and develops steadily even in changeable weather. Its moderate root depth makes it tolerant of short dry periods, while its compact rosette form allows close spacing and high yields per area. Thanks to its short cultivation period, it integrates flexibly into crop rotations, and successive sowings ensure continuous harvests into autumn.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cem\u003eCompared to other celery forms, \u003cspan\u003e'Gewöhnlicher Schnitt' \u003c\/span\u003ecutting celery is the easiest and fastest leaf type – ideal for anyone who values aromatic greens with high harvest frequency and versatile culinary use.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/tc\u003e","brand":"Benjis Seeds","offers":[{"title":"0.5g - 200 seeds","offer_id":49211095122248,"sku":"","price":2.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/7111\/3535\/files\/SchnittsellerieGewoehnlicherSchnitt-LeafCelery.jpg?v=1780051418"},{"product_id":"mooskrause-curly-parsley","title":"Curly Parsley Mooskrause [Petroselinum crispum]","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe biennial curly parsley 'Mooskrause' is a world-renowned and versatile spice and medicinal herb with a naturally strong aroma.

Caraway was already used in the Neolithic period, as archaeological finds from pile‑dwelling settlements show. The oldest confirmed evidence comes from the Neolithic settlement of Twann on Lake Biel (ca. 3000 BC), where caraway seeds were discovered in storage pits. The first written reference appears in the “Ebers Papyrus” (ca. 1550 BC), an ancient Egyptian medical compendium in which caraway is described as a remedy for digestive complaints. It was also known in antiquity and valued by Greeks and Romans as both a spice and a medicinal plant. Caraway belongs to the family Apiaceae, within the subfamily Apioideae and the genus \u003cem\u003eCarum\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the Middle Ages, true caraway played an important role in monastic medicine and European folk healing. It was considered digestive, antispasmodic, and warming, and was used in bread, cheese, cabbage dishes, and spirits. Its characteristic aroma, shaped primarily by carvone, made it one of the most important traditional spices of Central Europe. Medieval herbals such as the “Capitulare de villis” (8th century) and later the “Gart der Gesundheit” (1485) list caraway as a valuable medicinal and culinary herb. Over the centuries, it remained a staple of rural cuisine, monastic herbalism, and regional food culture. To this day, true caraway is an indispensable component of many traditional dishes and a valuable medicinal herb with a long cultural history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"western\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg height=\"119\" width=\"59\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/7111\/3535\/files\/Appearance_Characteristics_-_Aussehen_Merkmale_-_Aparencia_Caracteristicas_-_www.benjis.net.jpg?v=1763065935\" \u003e   Appearance \u0026amp; Characteristics\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plant is biennial and herbaceous, forming a basal rosette of finely divided, light‑green leaves in its first year.

Its intense aroma also makes it a valuable ingredient in herb blends and natural cuisine. In traditional herbal medicine, caraway is additionally used to support the respiratory system, promote milk production during breastfeeding, and ease cramp‑like complaints. The seeds are suitable for herbal liqueurs, digestifs, and aromatic oil extracts, while the young leaves can be used fresh in salads or herb butter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCaraway grows reliably outdoors. It prefers sunny locations, well‑drained and rather nutrient‑poor soils, and tolerates dry conditions well. As a biennial, winter‑hardy, and low‑maintenance plant, it produces abundant flowers and seeds in its second year. The plants attract numerous beneficial insects such as wild bees, hoverflies, and honeybees, supporting ecological balance in the garden. Thanks to its natural self‑seeding, it reappears annually at suitable sites and is excellent for nature‑oriented, low‑maintenance herb and cottage gardens. Its taproot loosens the soil sustainably, improves soil structure, and makes the plant particularly resilient during heat periods. Caraway is also remarkably sturdy, requires minimal care, and maintains high yield stability even on poor, dry soils.

In folk medicine and naturopathy, this hardy species has been firmly established and highly valued as a medicinal herb for centuries. In cooler parts of the temperate latitudes up to the subarctic of Scandinavia and Russia, the plants are often found growing wild, but they also thrive in warm climates. In the past, they were used in popular belief to ward off plague, poisons and magic. The robust and highly aromatic plants give off a sweet aromatic scent that attracts numerous pollinating insects. The taste is very spicy, somewhat sweet, slightly spicy and bitter. The leaves are mainly used as tea, bath additive or as a spice in mint sauces and mayonnaises.

As part of the traditional European wild flora, it was integrated early into naturalistic and perennial plantings. Botanically, it belongs to the plantain family (Plantaginaceae), subfamily Digitalidoideae, and the genus \u003cem\u003eDigitalis\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe first formal description of \u003cem\u003eDigitalis ferruginea\u003c\/em\u003e was published in 1753, when Carl Linnaeus included the species in \u003cem\u003eSpecies Plantarum\u003c\/em\u003e, providing its earliest clear documentation. This early mention firmly anchors rusty foxglove in the flora of south‑eastern Europe and marks its entry into European botanical literature. In the 18th and 19th centuries, it spread through botanical gardens into Central European natural and landscape plantings, where its tall, sturdy flower spikes were valued as striking structural elements. In many regions, the flowers were used in herbal bundles and household charms and were regarded as symbols of protection and natural strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn historical herbal medicine, \u003cem\u003eDigitalis ferruginea\u003c\/em\u003e played a role as a source of cardiotonic cardenolides, which were intensively studied in the 19th century. However, the plant remained a regional medicinal and ritual herb and was never cultivated as a standardised medicinal species; due to its toxicity, domestic use is excluded. Today, rusty foxglove is considered a valuable species for drought‑tolerant plantings, prairie borders and biodiversity‑oriented designs.

In the wild, it grows primarily in sunny ruderal areas, roadsides, and gravelly or stony surfaces such as stream banks and railway tracks. The unique plant develops long inflorescences from a large rosette of leaves with flowers that open at sunset and bloom until the next midday. Because it blooms for a long time, this versatile species is an important source of food for insects. All parts of the plant are edible. The strong, starchy, and fleshy roots have a spicy aroma and can be prepared like salsify or grated into salads. The taste of the roots is reminiscent of horseradish and celery. The high-quality and well-known healing evening primrose oil is made from the seeds, which is used for skin conditions such as neurodermatitis, period pain, rheumatic complaints, arthritis, or as an additive and active ingredient in cosmetic creams.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99; color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #1f2124\"\u003e\u003cu\u003eGeneral information\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlant family: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOnagraceae\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLife cycle: \u003c\/strong\u003eBiennial\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDays to harvest: \u003c\/strong\u003e100 days\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlant height approx.: \u003c\/strong\u003e100 cm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRoot type: \u003c\/strong\u003eDeep rooter\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNutrient requirements: \u003c\/strong\u003eLow\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWater requirements: \u003c\/strong\u003eLow\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWinter hardiness: \u003c\/strong\u003eUp to -34°C\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLocation: \u003c\/strong\u003eSunny\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSoil: \u003c\/strong\u003ePermeable, humus-rich sandy loam soil\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003epH value: \u003c\/strong\u003e6.5 to 7.5\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u003cu\u003eSowing and planting information\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGermination type: \u003c\/strong\u003eLight germinator\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSowing depth: \u003c\/strong\u003e0 cm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOptimal germination temperature: \u003c\/strong\u003e16-20 °C\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGermination time: \u003c\/strong\u003e14-21 days\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlant and row spacing: \u003c\/strong\u003e25x25 cm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination ability of seeds: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e70years\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline\"\u003e\u003cu\u003eMixed culture\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOptimal mixed culture:\u003c\/strong\u003e-\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnfavorable mixed culture:\u003c\/strong\u003e-\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline\"\u003e\u003cu\u003eSowing by climate zone\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSubtropic climate (Mediterranean) (e. g.
