Damals wurde Dill als Gewürz- und Heilpflanze verwendet und half bei vielen verschiedenen leiden. Das Kraut wird frisch und getrocknet in der Küche verwendet, die Blüten zum Einmachen und die Samen als Gewürz. Es hilft auch bei Blähungen und fördert den Milchfluss bei stillenden Frauen. Auch das Kauen der Samen hilft bei Mundgeruch und aus den Samen hergestelltes Dillwasser hat eine verdauungsfördernde Wirkung.

\u003e   Origin \u0026amp; History\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eLemon balm has been valued for centuries as a wild medicinal and culinary herb. Its original range extends from the Mediterranean region across southern and central Europe to Central Asia and Iran. The name “Melissa” derives from Greek and means “honeybee,” referring to the strong attraction of its flowers to pollinators. It belongs to the mint family (Lamiaceae), the subfamily Nepetoideae, and the genus \u003cem\u003eMelissa\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLemon balm was already cultivated and used in antiquity. Dioscorides mentioned it as a medicinal plant, and Roman authors such as Pliny described its applications, including rubbing it onto new beehives to attract swarms. Arab physicians of the 10th century used it to strengthen the heart and to treat melancholy. During the Carolingian period, its cultivation was mandated in monastic gardens, and in medieval Europe it was regarded as a “comfort for the heart” and became a central herb of monastic medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOver the centuries, the plant spread far beyond its original range and became naturalized throughout Europe and later in North America as a medicinal, culinary and aromatic herb. Its characteristic lemon scent, released when the leaves are crushed, has been appreciated since antiquity and is due to essential oils such as geranial and neral.

It belongs to the family Lamiaceae, the subfamily Nepetoideae, and the genus \u003cem\u003eThymus\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs early as around 300 BC, common thyme was mentioned in Greek sources, where it was described as an aromatic incense and medicinal herb. The Romans adopted it from this tradition, spread it throughout their provinces, and used it to season cheese, wine, and meat dishes. In the Middle Ages, common thyme entered northern cultivation through monastic gardens and was also described as a medicinal plant in medical manuscripts of the 12th century. In the early modern period, it remained an important culinary herb and appeared in numerous herbals.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith Mediterranean cuisine, common thyme became a key component of classic spice blends such as “Herbes de Provence” and continues to shape dishes in southern France, Italy, and Spain. The wild form remained virtually unchanged for centuries and is valued for its robustness, intense aroma, and ability to thrive reliably even in poor, dry soils. Today, common thyme is widespread worldwide and appreciated both in cooking and in traditional herbal medicine.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\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\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eplant \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003egrows \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ecompact, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ebushy, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eslightly \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewoody, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ereaching \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eabout \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e15–35 cm \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ein \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eheight \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eup \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e40 cm \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ein \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewidth. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ecarries \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003enumerous \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esmall, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eevergreen \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eleaves \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eshows \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ea \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehigh \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003etolerance \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edrought \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eheat. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eprefers \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esunny, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewarm \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003elocations \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eis \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewinter‑hardy \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edown \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003earound \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e−20 °C.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLeaf details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Small and narrow, individual leaflets approx. 0.5–1 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lanceolate to linear, often slightly rolled\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grey‑green to dark green, matte\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTexture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Firm, slightly leathery, finely hairy\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlavor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Intensely spicy, warm, slightly resinous with earthy notes\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"western\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/7111\/3535\/files\/Usage_Cultivation_Highlights_-_Verwendung_Anbau-Higlights_-_Utilizacao_e_Destaques_do_Cultivo_-_www.benjis.net_2f09de09-588a-47b6-ae70-802633c65d50.jpg?v=1763065990\" alt=\"\" width=\"75\" height=\"91\" \u003e  Usage \u0026amp; Cultivation Highlights\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCommon thyme is a versatile culinary herb whose fresh and dried leaves enhance a wide range of dishes. It pairs excellently with meat and braised dishes, stews, soups, sauces, as well as fish, poultry, and vegetable dishes. In Mediterranean cuisine, it shapes classic blends such as “Herbes de Provence” and harmonises particularly well with potatoes, tomatoes, courgettes, aubergines, and pulses. Common thyme flavours vinegar, oil, marinades, and barbecue seasonings and is ideal for herb mixes, herb butter, dips, pestos, and savoury baked goods. When dried, it retains its intense aroma and enriches roasts, ragouts, pasta sauces, pizza, focaccia, herb oils, herb salts, and oven dishes. It also refines mushroom dishes, risotto, lamb and game dishes, pickled vegetables, tomato confit, savoury jams, and infused honey. In beverages, it adds distinctive notes to lemonades, syrups, herbal drinks, and warm winter beverages. Its flowers serve as edible decoration and support bees and other pollinators in natural gardens. Traditionally, thyme is also used in herbal teas, infusions, inhalations, and compresses.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCommon thyme grows compactly and reliably in open ground, raised beds, rock gardens, herb spirals, and in pots on balconies and terraces. It is extremely low‑maintenance, winter‑hardy, and provides aromatic foliage throughout the season. It thrives particularly well in sunny, dry locations and copes with poor, stony soils as well as nutrient‑poor potting mixes. The plant remains compact, responds very well to pruning, and regenerates quickly. Thanks to its robust nature, common thyme is ideal for urban gardening, lean substrates, and exposed sites, as it requires little water and withstands dry periods well. Its fine woody structure provides stability, while its dense growth suppresses weeds and can help stabilise light soils on slopes. As a perennial and winter‑hardy species, it is perfect for long‑term herb beds and delivers reliable harvests. In mixed culture, it pairs well with rosemary, sage, and wild strawberries. Its long flowering period offers valuable food for pollinators, and as a slug‑resistant plant, it enriches permaculture and natural

In the kitchen they are popular in curries, rice dishes, and soups, add an exotic note to smoothies and herb spreads, and are also used in pestos and chutneys. In Ayurvedic herb blends, ‘Tulsi’ is often combined with ginger, cardamom, or black pepper to create invigorating and balancing drinks. Fresh leaves can serve as aromatic garnish, adding special flavor to salads or fruit bowls. In Southeast Asia the variety is traditionally used to season rice and lentil dishes, while dried leaves are processed into herbal powders and spice mixes.

It shows remarkable adaptability to different soil types, thriving in both loose garden soil and nutrient‑rich potting soil. Its rapid regeneration after cutting ensures a long and continuous harvest period. Particularly noteworthy is its strong resistance to pests and diseases, which makes cultivation easier and ensures stable yields. Regular harvesting further promotes bushy growth, so the plant provides abundant aromatic foliage throughout the season.

In many traditional herbals, annual mugwort is regarded as a cooling, health‑supporting herb that has been used for centuries to promote general well‑being.

The plant is easy to care for, fast‑growing and can be harvested throughout the entire growing season. Its flowers attract numerous beneficial insects and support ecological balance in the garden. Thanks to its robust nature, it continues to grow steadily in well‑drained, slightly acidic to neutral soils, regenerates quickly after each cut and can be harvested multiple times. It forms lush, bushy plants, is excellent for medicinal‑herb beds and shows strong tolerance to heat and sunny locations. It also withstands moderate drought, remains vigorous even in full sun and is ideally suited to ecological cultivation and self‑sufficiency gardens due to its adaptability.

History\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCoriander is a traditional annual medicinal and culinary plant native to the eastern Mediterranean, Western Asia, and parts of North Africa. Its use reaches far back in history: as early as around 1550 BC it is mentioned in the ancient Egyptian Ebers Papyrus, and archaeological finds from Neolithic settlements in the Levant as well as Bronze Age sites on Cyprus confirm its early significance. Seeds have also been discovered in ancient Egyptian tombs, further demonstrating its long‑standing use. Botanically, it belongs to the family Apiaceae, the subfamily Apioideae, and the genus \u003cem\u003eCoriandrum\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBeyond the Egyptian sources, coriander also appears in the Hebrew Book of Exodus, where its seeds are compared to manna. In ancient Greece it was described by Theophrastus, and later Pliny the Elder mentioned it in his \u003cem\u003eNaturalis historia\u003c\/em\u003e. Through ancient trade routes, true coriander spread to Greece, Italy, and other parts of Europe. During Roman times it was a valued culinary and medicinal spice, widely used in medical preparations as well as in cookbooks. With the expansion of Roman agriculture, it became established in warm, open landscapes of Central and Northern Europe and partially naturalized there.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the Middle Ages, coriander was cultivated in monastic herb gardens and described in medical texts as digestive and calming. It also remained an important remedy in Arabic medicine. With the global trade networks of the early modern period, coriander spread further into Asia, North Africa, and later the Americas, where it settled in dry, open habitats.

They pair well with fish, seafood, poultry, and vegetables, enhancing soups, stews, and rice dishes. Their fresh aroma also unfolds beautifully in salads, dips, dressings, spring rolls, summer rolls, and cold noodle bowls. The seeds are used roasted or ground in bread, pastries, marinades, spice blends, and pickles, and are key ingredients in curry powder, garam masala, and ras el hanout. They also flavor beer, gin, and liqueurs and are highly valued in Indian, Arabic, and Mediterranean cuisine. In traditional medicine, they are considered digestive and antispasmodic. Fresh leaves are also used in smoothies, pestos, herb butter, and herb oils, while the roots are used in Thai cuisine for pastes and marinades. In modern cooking, coriander leaves enrich bowls, wraps, tacos, vegetarian dishes, and fusion cuisine, giving them a distinctive aroma.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThanks to its robust growth, coriander thrives reliably in greenhouses, on windowsills, and outdoors. The plants mature early, continuously produce new leaves, and are easy to care for. With sufficient warmth and moisture, they deliver stable yields and are well suited for repeated harvests. They show strong adaptability to different locations and grow well in loose garden soil as well as in slightly more nutrient‑rich substrates. Coriander also develops reliably in slightly sandy or calcareous soils and maintains steady growth. Its fast and dependable germination allows for an early start to the season.

Shortly afterwards, Pliny the Elder mentioned it in \u003cem\u003eNaturalis historia\u003c\/em\u003e as a digestive and cleansing culinary herb. In Greco‑Roman medicine, hyssop was used for respiratory and digestive complaints, and externally for washes and poultices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the rise of monastic culture, hyssop entered Central European apothecary gardens early on. Medieval herbals list it as a strengthening and cleansing herb for teas, bitters, herbal wines and incense. In folk medicine it remained a trusted remedy for colds, bronchial issues and loss of appetite; its aromatic shoots were used in tinctures, salves and rubs. At the same time, hyssop became an important fragrant and ritual plant. Flowering stems were used across Europe in herbal bundles and household charms to cleanse and scent rooms. In the early modern period, its spicy‑bitter aroma shaped bitters, digestive elixirs and herbal wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eToday, hyssop remains a versatile Mediterranean culinary and medicinal herb with strong cultural significance.

The edible flowers serve as decorative elements in salads and herb dishes. Hyssop also refines herbal vinegars, digestive bitters, cough syrups and herbal wines, flavours honey and suits fillings, vegetable pans and savoury baked goods.

Bulb fennel has been an integral part of Mediterranean cuisine since the 19th century and is considered a historical and cultural heritage of the people of Europe. Later, the versatile vegetable was used as a medicinal herb in monastery gardens. The fast-growing variety forms round to high-round and bulbous white bulbs. The tender and juicy bulbs have a crispy structure. The taste is mildly spicy to sweet and reminiscent of a mixture of anise and liquorice. Bolt-resistant and ideal for raw food.

In locations with a lot of snails, pre-cultivation is always recommended. Snails love small fennel sprouts! To obtain compact, high-quality bulbs, mounds, even watering and temperatures are important. Lots of nutrients and minerals in the soil make the bulbs more tender. Growing in a greenhouse is only recommended over the winter with sufficient ventilation. Small seedlings can withstand temperatures of up to -4°C for a short time, large plants with tuber development would start to rot at these temperatures. To quickly obtain a fine, crumbly and permeable soil with good nutrient and water storage capacity, additional incorporation of biochar and primary rock flour is recommended.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003cu\u003eType of propagation\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePropagation occurs via seeds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003ePlant care\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLoosened, nutrient-rich soil and mixed planting are sufficient for bulb fennel.

It has been cultivated for centuries in East Africa, India, Thailand and Laos, where it became an integral part of regional cuisines. In Southeast Asia it is known under various names — in Thailand, for example, as \u003cem\u003emaenglak\u003c\/em\u003e. There it is traditionally used in curries, soups and fresh herb dishes. In Laos, Indonesia and parts of India it serves as a fragrant seasoning herb for fish, rice and vegetable dishes.

In horticultural writings of the late 19th century it is mentioned as an “African‑Asian lemon basil”, praised for its robustness, fresh scent and suitability for warm summers. Today, lemon basil is cultivated worldwide and is considered one of the most aromatic wild forms within the basil family — shaped by essential oils such as citral, which give it its characteristic lemon fragrance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\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\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eplant \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003egrows \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ein \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ea \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eloose, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ebushy \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehabit \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ereaches \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ea \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eheight \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eof \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eabout \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e40–60 cm. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eproduces \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003enumerous \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003emedium‑green \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eleaves, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eoval \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eslightly \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epointed, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewith \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ea \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esmooth \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esurface. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eflowers \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eappear \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ein \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003elate \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esummer, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eare \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewhite \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epale \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003elilac, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eare \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehighly \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eattractive \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ebees. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWarm‑loving \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esensitive \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003efrost.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLeaf details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Medium, approx. 4-5 cm long leaves\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ovate to slightly pointed\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium green, distinctly veined\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTexture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tender\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlavor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Intense lemon aroma with a fresh, spicy note\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"western\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/7111\/3535\/files\/Usage_Cultivation_Highlights_-_Verwendung_Anbau-Higlights_-_Utilizacao_e_Destaques_do_Cultivo_-_www.benjis.net_2f09de09-588a-47b6-ae70-802633c65d50.jpg?v=1763065990\" alt=\"\" width=\"75\" height=\"91\" \u003e  Usage \u0026amp; Cultivation Highlights\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eLemon Basil\u003cspan\u003e leaves are excellent for fresh use in salads, smoothies and as a garnish.

Its original range includes the temperate regions of Europe and Asia, extending into North Africa. It belongs to the daisy family (Asteraceae), the subfamily Asteroideae, and the genus \u003cem\u003eArtemisia\u003c\/em\u003e, whose name is traditionally associated with the goddess Artemis.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs early as antiquity, mugwort was described as an aromatic medicinal and ritual plant, for example by Dioscorides and Hippocrates. In Germanic and Celtic traditions it was regarded as a protective herb and burned during solstice celebrations.

Its aromatic, slightly bitter flavour enhances herb salt, spice blends and traditional culinary herbs. The dried leaves and flower heads are used for incense, tea and cultural rituals. In many regions of Europe and Asia, mugwort has traditionally been used to support general well‑being, for example for digestive comfort or to promote relaxation. It is also used in herb bundles, scented cushions, as a component of incense mixtures and in craft applications such as herbal wreaths. In folk tradition it is regarded as a classic protective and seasonal herb that was burned during festivals and rites of passage. Its aromatic shoots are also suitable for flavouring vinegar, oils and traditional beverages.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCommon mugwort thrives reliably in open ground, along paths and in naturalistic gardens. The plant is extremely low‑maintenance, winter‑hardy and can be harvested for many years. Its flowers attract numerous beneficial insects and support ecological balance in the garden. Thanks to its robust nature, it continues to grow steadily even in poor, dry soils, regenerates quickly after each cut and can be harvested multiple times. It forms long‑lived, spreading clumps, is excellent for wild‑herb beds and shows strong tolerance to drought, heat and fluctuating weather conditions. It also copes well with nutrient‑poor sites, remains vigorous in full sun and exposed, windy locations, and is ideally suited to ecological cultivation and low‑maintenance garden concepts due to its

History\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWormwood is one of the oldest bitter and medicinal plants of the Old World, accompanying humans for more than two millennia. Its original range lies in the dry, sunny regions of Europe, North Africa, and Western Asia. Botanically, wormwood belongs to the Asteraceae family, the Asteroideae subfamily, and the genus Artemisia, traditionally associated with the protective goddess Artemis.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe earliest documented reference dates to the 1st century AD. The Greek physician Dioscorides describes wormwood in his work De materia medica as one of the most important bitter herbs of his time. Pliny the Elder and Hippocratic medicine also mention it as a strengthening, digestion‑supporting herb.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the Middle Ages, wormwood became a staple of monastic gardens. Herbals and medical writings from the 9th to 12th centuries describe it as a cleansing, fortifying, and protective plant. Hildegard of Bingen and later Paracelsus valued it as a classic bitter remedy. It was so widespread that it appeared in cottage gardens, apothecary gardens, and along pathways throughout much of Europe.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith the early modern period, wormwood gained importance in the production of bitter liqueurs, absinthe, and vermouth. Its bitter compounds—especially absinthin—and essential oils such as thujone still define the characteristic flavor of these traditional beverages.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\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\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eplant \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eis \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ea \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eperennial, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eherbaceous \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003especies \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eforming \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eupright, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ebushy \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003estems. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIts \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eleaves \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eare \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003efinely \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edivided, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esilver‑grey, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edensely \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epubescent. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSmall \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eyellowish \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eflowers \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eappear \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003efrom \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003elate \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esummer \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ein \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eloose, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epaniculate \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003einflorescences. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edevelops \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ea \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003estrong, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edeep‑reaching \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003etaproot \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewith \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ea \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003elong‑lived \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ecrown. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHardy \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eat \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eleast \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e−29 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e°C.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlant details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHeight:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Medium, 60–120 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eForm:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upright, bushy, compactly branched\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLeaves:\u003c\/strong\u003e Finely divided, silver‑grey\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlowers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yellowish, in panicles\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlavor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Intensely bitter and aromatic\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"western\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg height=\"91\" width=\"75\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/7111\/3535\/files\/Usage_Cultivation_Highlights_-_Verwendung_Anbau-Higlights_-_Utilizacao_e_Destaques_do_Cultivo_-_www.benjis.net_2f09de09-588a-47b6-ae70-802633c65d50.jpg?v=1763065990\" \u003e  Usage \u0026amp; Cultivation Highlights\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWormwood is ideal for bitter liqueurs, absinthe, vermouth, and traditional herbal preparations. Its aromatic, bitter flavor refines tinctures, bitter elixirs, and herbal teas. Dried leaves and flowering stems are used for incense, tea, rituals, scented sachets, herb bundles, and decorative wreaths. In many regions it is regarded as a classic protective and cleansing herb. Its shoots add aroma to vinegar, oils, and traditional beverages. Wormwood has also been used for centuries to repel insects, whether in bouquets, cupboards, or natural repellent blends. In the garden it serves as a robust, fragrant structural plant that attracts beneficial insects while deterring pests.

The plant is extremely low‑maintenance, winter‑hardy, and harvestable for many years. Its flowers attract numerous beneficial insects and support ecological balance. Thanks to its resilience, it continues to grow steadily even in poor soils, regenerates after every cut, and allows multiple harvests. It forms long‑lasting, compact clumps, tolerates drought, heat, and nutrient‑poor sites, and remains vigorous even in full sun and exposed, windy conditions. Mature plants are resistant to slugs and well suited for container culture. Its aromatic scent naturally repels pests while simultaneously attracting pollinators.

Its reputation as a historic giant onion, its adaptability and its characteristically mild flavour made it a variety preserved and grown across generations.\u003c\/p\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\u003eIn the first year, the plants form very large bulbs and upright, vigorous foliage.

back. In its region of origin it is known under the traditional name \u003cem\u003eVšetatská\u003c\/em\u003e and is regarded as a local Czech‑Slovak landrace, named after a village of the same name.

It has been known in Central Europe since the 17th century and is still found wild in small populations all over the world, with a focus on the large river valleys, roadsides and ruderal areas as well as in the eastern low mountain ranges. Wild rocket is a pioneer plant and the original form of the well-known rocket as we know it today. The plant has narrow, serrated leaves and an intensely spicy aroma with a cress and walnut-like taste. The plant has a strong tendency to self-seed, so that it repeatedly forms larger stocks.

From there it spread across Europe. The orange‑flowered cultivated form known today arose from Mediterranean wild populations and was already described as a medicinal plant in antiquity. Dioscorides and Pliny mentioned its use for skin ailments, and its bright blooms were early on used as a dye and as a saffron substitute. The name “Calendula” refers to its long flowering period. It belongs to the family Asteraceae, the subfamily Asteroideae and the genus \u003cem\u003eCalendula\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the Middle Ages it was a fixed component of monastic gardens; Hildegard of Bingen called Common Marigold “Ringula”. Its flowers were used medicinally and for colouring food and textiles. During this period, the first deliberately maintained cultivated forms emerged, with larger and more intensely coloured blooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the 16th to the 19th century Common Marigold spread as an important medicinal and garden plant throughout Europe. The classic orange form was selected over generations for its colour, floriferousness and reliable seed production. Its anti‑inflammatory and wound‑healing properties are based on triterpene saponins, flavonoids and essential oils. To this day, the orange marigold remains a key plant for natural gardens, medicinal‑herb cultivation and natural cosmetics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\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 annual and herbaceous, forming upright, branched stems with elongated‑oval, slightly hairy leaves.

Its anti‑inflammatory and wound‑healing properties have traditionally been used for skin irritations, minor wounds, eczema and dry skin. Applied externally, it soothes sensitive skin and supports regeneration. The petals refine salads, soups, rice dishes and baked goods, serve as a natural colouring agent and are used in natural cosmetics for creams, soaps and facial tonics. In herbal medicine it supports wound healing, acts against inflammation and gently cares for the skin. The flowers are also used in baths, compresses and oil infusions for massage and care oils, as well as for colouring vinegars, oils and herb salts. Dried flowers are suitable for incense and fragrance blends and serve in the kitchen as a plant‑based alternative to saffron. In the garden it attracts pollinators, improves the soil and is traditionally used in mixed cropping to support soil health.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCommon Marigold grows reliably in open ground, raised beds and containers. The plant is easy to care for, heat‑tolerant and flowers abundantly over many months. Its blooms attract numerous beneficial insects such as bees, bumblebees and hoverflies, supporting ecological balance in the garden. Thanks to its robust nature it continues to grow well even in less‑than‑ideal soils, self‑seeds and is excellent for flowering strips, natural gardens and green manures. It is also highly tolerant of drought and fluctuating weather conditions. With its rapid development it reliably suppresses weeds, improves soil structure and is well suited to crop rotations and mixed cultivation. Even poor, sandy or slightly compacted soils pose little difficulty, and it continues to flower reliably with lower nutrient availability. This makes it one of the most versatile and adaptable cultivated plants for nature‑friendly and ecological gardens.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cem\u003eCompared with other

History\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBorage has been used as a culinary and garden plant for centuries. Its original range lies in the western and central Mediterranean region, from where it spread early across Europe and later worldwide. The name “Borago” is derived either from the Latin \u003cem\u003eburra\u003c\/em\u003e (“rough, woolly”) – a reference to its dense hairiness – or from the Arabic \u003cem\u003eabu rach\u003c\/em\u003e (“father of sweat”). Botanically, it belongs to the family Boraginaceae, the subfamily Boraginoideae and the genus \u003cem\u003eBorago\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBorage was deliberately cultivated in antiquity and described by ancient authors such as Pliny and Dioscorides as a useful garden and culinary plant.

The seeds are used industrially for the production of borage oil, and young leaves refine cold soups, herb butter, dips and spreads, while in warm dishes they can be briefly steamed or used in fillings and herb pancakes. The flowers are suitable for candying, for coloured ice cubes, desserts and flavoured vinegars.

Its flowers attract numerous pollinators such as bees and bumblebees and support ecological balance in the garden.

It is excellent for herb spirals, flower strips, cottage gardens and naturalistic gardens. It also shows overall tolerance to dry periods and fluctuating weather conditions. With its deep taproot, it loosens the soil, improves soil structure and can serve as a living mulch and structural plant. Its rapid juvenile growth suppresses weeds.

This hardy perennial is native to southern Europe, the Mediterranean, and Africa. It thrives wild in dry, calcareous grasslands and rocky areas and is commonly found in countries such as Spain, Italy, and the Balkan Peninsula. The herb was first used by the ancient Romans and Greeks around 2,000 years ago and brought to Great Britain, where it became established in gardens. For many centuries, the medicinal herb has been highly valued as a culinary spice and also for its medicinal properties. The evergreen dwarf shrub produces aromatic leaves and flowers and has a strong, spicy aroma reminiscent of sun-drenched landscapes. In folk medicine, it was often regarded as a symbol of strength and vitality, also as an aphrodisiac and associated with passion and love. The medicinal herb is used to treat indigestion and respiratory diseases and is traditionally used to support digestion, relieve flatulence and stomach pain, and promote general health. It can be harvested almost year-round and is used fresh or dried in the kitchen for meat, bean, and potato dishes or stews, making heavy foods easier to digest.

It also appears in digestive‑herb mixtures, bitter elixirs, herbal wines, oil macerates, plant balms, insect‑ and moth‑repellent blends, as well as in medicinal herbal baths and strengthening compresses. In traditional herbal medicine it is additionally used for circulation‑stimulating applications, metabolism‑activating blends and fortifying tonics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the garden, rue is a valuable pollinator and fragrance plant, ideal for natural gardens, herb spirals and dry sites. It prefers sunny positions and well‑drained, lean soils. Thanks to its deep taproot it is extremely drought‑tolerant and copes well even in hot summers. The plant is low‑maintenance, regenerates well after pruning and can be harvested for many years. It is disease‑resistant, heat‑tolerant and excellent for ecological growing systems. Rue can be propagated by seed, cuttings or division and remains stable and long‑lived even in pots. It also offers strong wind resistance, reliable development in nutrient‑poor soils, good recovery after dry periods, natural weed suppression through its dense growth, long flowering as a pollinator magnet, suitability for stony, calcareous and Mediterranean garden concepts, and lasting vitality with minimal care.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cem\u003eCompared to many other Mediterranean

The pleasantly scented herb is used for bath additives, soaps, ointments and as a tea, and the plant has a diuretic effect that can transport toxins out of the body.

Its natural range includes the temperate to warm regions of China, Korea, Japan and neighbouring parts of East Asia. The Chinese name „荆芥“ (Jīng Jiè), literally “thorn mint”, refers to its traditional use and its fine, slightly rough stems. Botanically, the plant belongs to the Lamiaceae family, subfamily Nepetoideae, and the genus Schizonepeta.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIts earliest written mention appears in the classical herbal text 神農本草經 (Shénnóng Běncǎo Jīng), compiled between the 1st century BCE and the 1st century CE. There, Jing Jie is described as a herb that “expels wind” and “releases the exterior”, referring in historical TCM terminology to its use for early‑stage colds, chills and weather‑related discomfort. Later works such as the 名醫別錄 (Míngyī Biélù) also mention its use for itchy skin conditions. The 本草綱目 (Běncǎo Gāngmù, 1596) describes Jing Jie as a plant whose dried flowering spikes were traditionally used for sensitivity to cold and wind, skin reactions and seasonal ailments.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith the spread of East Asian herbal traditions, Jing Jie reached Europe and North America from the 20th century onwards, where it is cultivated as an aromatic tea and medicinal herb. Its characteristic mild mint aroma with fruity notes, shaped by a low menthol content, clearly distinguishes it from classic peppermint varieties. Thanks to its long history of use, its versatility and its essential oil content, Jing Jie is still regarded as one of the oldest and most significant traditional medicinal plants of East Asia.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\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 annual, herbaceous and grows upright with loosely branched stems.

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.

The fruits contain essential oils with digestive, antispasmodic, and calming properties. Traditionally, caraway is used for bloating, fullness, and gastrointestinal discomfort and is incorporated into teas, tinctures, oil infusions, and salves. 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. With its early flowering in the second year, it provides pollinators with an important food source at the beginning of the season, enhancing biodiversity in the

History\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNasturtium originates from the Andean regions of South America, where it grows in the highlands of Peru, Bolivia and Colombia. In the 16th century it reached Europe through Spanish and Dutch expeditions and quickly became popular as an ornamental and useful plant. Its edible leaves and flowers were especially valued, as well as the unripe seeds, which were pickled as “false capers.” Botanically, nasturtium belongs to the family Tropaeolaceae, subfamily Tropaeoloideae, and the genus \u003cem\u003eTropaeolum\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe first known mention appears in 1569 in the writings of the Spanish chronicler Nicolás Monardes, who described nasturtium in his work on the “new plants from the Indies,” highlighting its striking flowers and culinary value. The term “Indies” at that time did not refer to present‑day India but to the so‑called “West Indies,” a historical term for the Spanish colonies in the Americas. A few decades later, nasturtium appeared in European herbals as an exotic, colorful garden plant and spread quickly due to its spicy flavor and decorative blossoms.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the Baroque period it was considered an exotic curiosity; later it became established in monastic and cottage gardens as a robust, easy‑to‑grow crop. Its name refers to the shape of the flowers, which resemble the hood of Capuchin monks. Today, nasturtium is one of the most versatile ornamental and edible plants for natural gardens, balconies and self‑sufficiency beds, appreciated for its edible flowers, spicy aroma and strong attraction to pollinators.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt was also used medicinally at an early stage: in traditional South American herbal medicine, the fresh leaves were considered strengthening and cleansing, while the seeds, with their sharp aroma, were used for stimulating herbal preparations. In Europe, the plant was occasionally used in simple household remedies that relied on its peppery‑mustard‑like constituents. Its combination of culinary value, decorative appeal and natural vigor makes nasturtium one of the most popular garden plants with diverse uses to this day.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\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\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eplant \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eis \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eannual \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eforming \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003elong, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esoft \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eherbaceous, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eshoots \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethat, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edepending \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eon \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethe \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003evariety, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eeither \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ecreep \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ealong \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethe \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eground \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eor \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eclimb \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewhen \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003egiven \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esupport. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eround, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eshield \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esmooth, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esucculent‑shaped \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eleaves \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eare \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003emildly \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epeppery \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ein \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eflavor. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eflowers \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eappear \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ein \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003evivid \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ecolors \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eattract \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003enumerous \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epollinators. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNasturtium \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eis \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003enot \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewinter \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewhen \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eexposed \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto‑hardy \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edies \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eback \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eich \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eauch \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ediesen \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003efrost.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlant details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHeight:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Medium, 60 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eForm:\u003c\/strong\u003e Herbaceous, creeping or climbing, with 100–150 cm runners\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLeaves:\u003c\/strong\u003e Round, shield‑shaped, juicy green\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlowers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Orange to orange‑red, funnel‑shaped\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlavor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spicy‑hot, peppery, mustard‑like\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"western\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg height=\"91\" width=\"75\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/7111\/3535\/files\/Usage_Cultivation_Highlights_-_Verwendung_Anbau-Higlights_-_Utilizacao_e_Destaques_do_Cultivo_-_www.benjis.net_2f09de09-588a-47b6-ae70-802633c65d50.jpg?v=1763065990\" \u003e  Usage \u0026amp; Cultivation Highlights\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNasturtium is excellent for salads, raw dishes, herb butter, spreads, edible decorations and for pickling the unripe seeds. Leaves and flowers can be used fresh or incorporated into herb oils, flower salts and decorative dishes. The blossoms add color and a fine, spicy aroma to the kitchen. Young leaves can also be processed into mildly spicy pestos, while the sharp‑aromatic seeds offer a piquant alternative to peppercorns. Nasturtium also develops its characteristic aroma in herbal vinegars, aromatic oils and fresh summer lemonades. The flowers are suitable for colorful ice cubes, flower butter and delicate herbal infusions, and the leaves can add a peppery note to light soups or briefly sautéed vegetable dishes. In natural cuisine it is often used for colorful herb blends, decorative plate arrangements and fresh wild herb dishes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the garden, nasturtium impresses with rapid growth, high adaptability and its strong attraction to pollinators. It is ideal for natural gardens, mixed plantings, balcony boxes and climbing supports. As a classic “trap plant,” it attracts aphids and thus protects other crops. It thrives in sunny to partially shaded locations and grows reliably even in containers. The plant is easy to care for, regenerates quickly and provides fresh leaves and flowers over many weeks. Through self‑seeding it can establish itself permanently in suitable gardens. Its bright colors, spicy flavor and uncomplicated cultivation make it one of the most popular edible and ornamental plants for home gardeners and self‑sufficient growers. It also tolerates temporary drought surprisingly well, grows reliably in poorer soils and easily covers embankments, walls or slopes with its long shoots. In sheltered locations it forms dense, vigorous plant cushions that structure beds and suppress weeds.

The cat-loving plant is widespread in Eurasia and can be found in Europe at altitudes of up to 900 meters. Cats are crazy about this plant, especially in spring, which changes later in the year when the plant produces more essential oils. It develops characteristic small edible blue flowers that attract insects. It exudes a pleasant minty citrus scent that keeps mosquitoes away and has a mild taste. All parts of the plant can be used as a slightly calming tea and mixes well with other herbs. The tea has a slightly sedative and hypnotic effect.

along roadsides, in meadows, and on fallow land. Botanically, it belongs to the family Asteraceae, the subfamily Asteroideae, and the genus \u003cem\u003eTanacetum\u003c\/em\u003e within the species \u003cem\u003eTanacetum vulgare\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs early as the Middle Ages, common tansy was used as a medicinal and utilitarian plant, valued especially for its aromatic compounds and its application against insects. The historical name “Rainfarn” — derived from older German terms such as “Reinfarn” or “Wurmfarn” — reflects this traditional use. Its robust nature and its ability to form long‑lasting stands through rhizomes contributed to its wide distribution.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith European settlers, tansy reached North America early on, where it was cultivated in gardens from the 17th century onward and later became naturalized in many regions. Even after the decline of traditional herb use, it remained present in naturalistic gardens. Its long flowering period, its importance as a pollinator plant, and its high tolerance for different site conditions have been appreciated for generations. The enduring presence of common tansy in the European flora and its diverse historical uses make it a culturally significant wild plant.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\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\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eplants \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eform \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eupright, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003etufted \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eclumps \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ereach \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ea \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eheight \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eof \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eabout \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e80–150 cm \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewith \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ea \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewidth \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eof \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e40–60 cm. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003egolden‑yellow, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ebutton‑shaped \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eflowers \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eappear \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ein \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edense, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eflat \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ecorymbs. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003especies \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eis \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003efully \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehardy \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edown \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eabout \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e–35 °C.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlant details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium to tall, 80–150 cm high, 40–60 cm wide\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eForm:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upright, tuft‑forming, loosely branched\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlower colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Golden yellow, bright\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering period:\u003c\/strong\u003e July to September\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScent:\u003c\/strong\u003e Strongly aromatic, camphor‑like\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"western\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg height=\"91\" width=\"75\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/7111\/3535\/files\/Usage_Cultivation_Highlights_-_Verwendung_Anbau-Higlights_-_Utilizacao_e_Destaques_do_Cultivo_-_www.benjis.net_2f09de09-588a-47b6-ae70-802633c65d50.jpg?v=1763065990\" \u003e  Usage \u0026amp; Cultivation Highlights\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCommon tansy is suitable for naturalistic gardens, wild perennial beds, cottage gardens, and extensive plantings. Historically, the plant was used as a dye plant for yellow tones, as an incense herb, and for making plant ferments. It serves as a valuable pollinator plant and as a traditional medicinal herb. In naturalistic plantings, wildflower meadows, and ecological gardens, its bright flower heads add vivid accents and contribute to biodiversity. It also remains attractive as a cut flower for rustic bouquets. In addition, tansy is appreciated in mixed plantings for its aromatic scent, which can help repel unwanted insects. Dried flowers and leaves are used in scented bouquets, herb bundles, and decorative natural arrangements.

Thanks to its strong, rhizome‑like root system, it remains low‑maintenance, while its even clump formation helps cover ground effectively. Mature plants are largely resistant to slugs and exhibit excellent winter hardiness. Tansy is well suited to mixed plantings, tolerates heat well, and stays vigorous even in full sun. With its rapid establishment, it quickly closes open soil patches and stabilizes naturalistic plantings. It also responds well to cutting and shows remarkable resistance to many plant diseases.

centuries across the North American prairies. Its natural range includes the dry to moderately moist open landscapes of the central and eastern United States, including prairies, open woodlands, rocky slopes and savannas. In many Indigenous traditions it was valued as a tea, aromatic and healing plant, appreciated for its clear, spicy‑minty scent and its strengthening qualities. Botanically, it belongs to the family Lamiaceae, the subfamily Nepetoideae and the genus \u003cem\u003ePycnanthemum\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOral traditions record that the species has been used by Indigenous peoples of North America for hundreds of years. In 1803 it was mentioned in \u003cem\u003eThe Natural History of the Vegetable Kingdom\u003c\/em\u003e, where American mountain mint is described as an aromatic prairie plant with medicinal uses. It is noted there as a herb used in infusions to ease cold symptoms, chills and to support general wellbeing. In North American folk herbalism it was also regarded as a calming herb for the stomach and digestion, a mild remedy for light respiratory discomfort and a plant whose scent was used in smudging and herbal baths. Dried flower heads were traditionally used as an aromatic tea component and as a natural fragrance herb in living spaces.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWith the rise of naturalistic gardening and prairie‑inspired planting concepts, American mountain mint spread increasingly into Europe during the 20th century, where it quickly became popular for its intense aroma and high ecological value. Today it is considered one of the most valuable wild perennials for biodiversity, as it is among the richest nectar plants of the summer and has an exceptional attraction for wild bees, butterflies and hoverflies.

Fresh or dried shoots refine herb oils, vinegars, marinades, vegetable dishes and summer salads. The flower heads dry well and are ideal for scented sachets, potpourris or tea blends. It also enriches summer lemonades and herbal waters, is suitable for calming herbal compresses and for aromatic herb salts and spice mixes. Dried shoots are used in scented pillows, sleep herb blends and dried bouquets, while in bath additives, massage oils and steam baths they release their clear fragrance. When grilling, it lends a fine aroma to vegetables and fish as a herbal smoke and, when freshly harvested, serves as a garnish for desserts and fruit salads.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the garden, American mountain mint impresses with its robustness, drought tolerance and high cutting resilience. It thrives in prairie plantings, herb spirals, naturalistic gardens and ecological growing systems. Its nectar‑rich flowers attract numerous beneficial insects and sustainably support biodiversity. The plant remains upright and develops reliably into an aromatic, long‑lived perennial even in dry summers. It is easy to care for and disease‑resistant, rarely needs additional watering and shows remarkable vitality even on rocky, nutrient‑poor or sandy soils. Thanks to its deep taproot it copes well with heat periods and simultaneously stabilises the soil. It is excellent for pollinator‑friendly plantings, harmonises with grasses and other prairie species and remains compact and well‑shaped even in dense plantings. With its even, clump‑forming growth it spreads in a controlled manner without becoming invasive, making it an ideal choice for naturalistic borders, herb plantings and low‑maintenance gardens. Even in containers or large pots it grows reliably and provides aromatic shoots and abundant flowers for many years.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cem\u003eCompared to classic

It refines soups, sauces, fish dishes and salads, pairs well with poultry and vegetables, and is used in herbal medicine to support the immune system, for colds and for gentle relaxation. It is also suitable for herb butter, liqueurs, syrups and flavoured oils, can be used for incense, and features in the traditional cuisine of Central America in maize dishes, bean dishes and pumpkin preparations.

It is excellent for herb spirals, cottage gardens and naturalistic gardens and shows strong tolerance to dry periods and heat.

Its natural range includes dry, stony slopes, garrigue landscapes and sunny calcareous soils in southern France, Spain and Italy. The Romans already used lavender for baths, ointments and wound care; its name derives from the Latin \u003cem\u003elavare\u003c\/em\u003e (“to wash”).

Pliny the Elder confirms these uses in his \u003cem\u003eNaturalis Historia\u003c\/em\u003e, calling lavender a valuable aromatic and medicinal plant for oils, salves and incense – clear evidence of its established role in everyday and healing practices of the Roman Empire.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the Middle Ages, English Lavender was cultivated in monastic gardens and valued for its cleansing, soothing and protective qualities.

Its natural range includes the warm‑temperate regions of southern Europe, particularly the western Mediterranean, southern France, the Iberian Peninsula and parts of North Africa. The botanical name \u003cem\u003esuaveolens\u003c\/em\u003e means “pleasantly fragrant” and refers to its mild, fruity aroma, which distinguishes it from more strongly menthol‑rich mints. Its first recorded mention appears as early as the 9th century in early herbals such as the \u003cem\u003eHortulus\u003c\/em\u003e, and later again in the \u003cem\u003ePhysica\u003c\/em\u003e, where it is described as a round‑leaved, mild mint.

Its good winter hardiness, reliable growth and gentle aroma made it a valued garden plant that spread far beyond its original native range. In medieval monastic gardens and rural farm gardens it was actively tended and passed on, contributing to its wide distribution. Alongside its culinary uses, it also played a role in traditional herbal practice, where it was used for simple herbal infusions, calming herb waters and mild household remedies.

In some regions they serve as a natural yellow dye for light herbal preparations, and the dried flower spikes are sometimes used decoratively or symbolically.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the garden, mullein impresses with extreme resilience, drought tolerance and its ability to thrive even in poor, rocky or sandy soils. Its deep taproot provides stability and makes it an ideal perennial for dry gardens, natural plantings and extensive landscapes. It supports biodiversity, attracts numerous pollinators and adds a striking vertical structure to beds with its tall flower spikes. The plant is largely disease‑resistant, easy to care for and reliably regenerates through self‑seeding without becoming invasive. It also shows high heat and wind tolerance, copes well with nutrient‑poor substrates and establishes itself quickly and permanently in challenging locations through self‑sowing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cem\u003eCompared to many other wild and medicinal plants, mullein is particularly drought‑tolerant, ecologically valuable and deeply rooted in historical tradition — ideal for anyone seeking a robust, imposing and culturally significant wild perennial.\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\/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":"0.3g -

They germinate and grow quite quickly and are usually ready to harvest after just six weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99; color: #000000;\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003cspan style=\"color: #1f2124\"\u003e\u003cu\u003eGeneral information\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlant family:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eBrassicaceae\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLife cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Annual\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDays to harvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 days\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlant height approx.:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 cm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRoot type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shallow rooter\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNutrient requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWater requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWinter hardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to -10°C\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLocation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sunny until semi shady\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Permeable, humus-rich sandy loam soil\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003epH value:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 to 8\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003cu\u003eSowing and planting information\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGermination type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Light germinator\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSowing depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0 cm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOptimal germination temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10-16 °C\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGermination time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3-6 days\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlant and row spacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15x25 cm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination ability of seeds:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 5-6\u0026nbsp;years\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline\"\u003e\u003cu\u003eMixed culture\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOptimal mixed culture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Marigold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnfavorable mixed culture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Asian salad, Mustard, Cress, Nasturtium\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline\"\u003e\u003cu\u003eSowing by climate zone\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSubtropic climate (Mediterranean) (e. g.

Its breeding foundation consisted of genetically diverse lines of true coriander (Coriandrum sativum), from which plants with strong leaf growth, an extended vegetative phase, and significantly reduced bolting tendency were selected. The variety was created to ensure stable, long‑lasting leaf production and to perform reliably even under fluctuating weather conditions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLeaf coriander 'Konrad' is characterized by delayed flowering, which significantly extends the harvest period—an important advantage over traditional coriander, which often bolts early. This trait makes the variety particularly suitable for home gardens, balcony cultivation, and professional herb production, where continuous leaf growth is essential. Thanks to its genetic stability, the variety can be reliably propagated and contributes to maintaining diversity within the crop species.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBotanically, 'Konrad' belongs to the family Apiaceae, the subfamily Apioideae, and the genus Coriandrum. Its development is considered an example of modern ecological herb breeding, producing robust, aromatic, and adaptable varieties that can be cultivated without intensive interventions. Since its introduction, 'Konrad' has become established in many European regions and is now regarded as one of the most reliable bolt‑resistant leaf coriander varieties in organic cultivation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\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 grows compact and bushy, reaching a height of about 40 to 60 cm.
