Samenfunde im Grab von Pharao Amenophis II. belegen seine Verwendung bereits um 1400 v. Chr. und auch die Bibel erwähnt das Kraut. 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.

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 gardens.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cem\u003eCompared to other culinary herbs, common thyme is the classic Mediterranean seasoning herb with an intense aroma — indispensable

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 is easy to care for, heat‑tolerant, and delivers stable yields in warm climates. Multiple harvests are possible, as the plant continuously produces new leaves. In frost‑free regions or when overwintered indoors it can be harvested for years. 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.

History\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eLovage is a very old perennial medicinal and culinary herb. Botanically, it originates from the mountainous regions of Afghanistan and Iran, where the wild form is native to temperate, montane habitats. From there, the plant reached the Mediterranean region via early trade routes and was already cultivated in antiquity by the Greeks and Romans as a medicinal and culinary herb. The name “lovage” derives from the Latin \u003cem\u003elevisticum\u003c\/em\u003e, historically associated with Liguria, although the species is not native there. In everyday language it is called “Maggikraut” because its intense aroma resembles the well‑known seasoning. It belongs to the carrot family (Apiaceae), the subfamily Apioideae, and is the only species in the genus \u003cem\u003eLevisticum\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the early Middle Ages, Lovage spread through monastic and farmhouse gardens across Europe and became a staple of traditional European herbal and medicinal plant culture.

Its leaves, roots and seeds contain essential oils and have traditionally been used for digestive discomfort. As a tea, it has a soothing effect on the stomach and intestines. The roots are also used to make tinctures and liqueurs. In addition, it enhances herb butter, seasoning oils, vegetable dishes and fillings, adds flavour to pickled vegetables and ferments, and is suitable for drying, freezing and herb salts. The seeds are used as a spice for bread, meat dishes and spirits, and the leaves serve in the kitchen as an intense natural substitute for Maggi seasoning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plant grows reliably in open ground and in large containers. Lovage is perennial, persistent and winter‑hardy, showing great robustness and high yields. Its flowers attract numerous beneficial insects such as bees and hoverflies. Leaves can be harvested continuously, and roots from the second year onward. Waterlogging should be avoided. Thanks to its strong taproot, it is particularly drought‑tolerant once established and easily withstands cooler summers. It reliably resprouts each spring, grows quickly and forms stable, vigorous clumps for many years. Its intense aroma remains even during dry periods, and the plant is largely resistant to pests, making it a low‑maintenance, long‑lived and highly rewarding crop for herb and natural

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. As the ancestral form of today’s cultivated coriander, it is still considered a valuable genetic resource for aromatic diversity, resilience, and adaptability.\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\u003eupright \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 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e60 cm. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eforms \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ea \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003erosette \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eof \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003efeathery \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eleaves \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ebefore \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eflowering \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edeveloping \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esmall, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewhite \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epale \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epink \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eumbel \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eblossoms. \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 Lower leaves 3–6 cm long, upper leaves finer at 1–3 cm long\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pinnate to bipinnate, parsley‑like\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fresh green with a slight sheen\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTexture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tender and slightly succulent\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlavor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Leaves intensely aromatic, citrus‑like with a faint soapy note; seeds warm‑spicy and mildly sweet\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\u003eThe fresh leaves of coriander are excellent for Asian, Latin American, and Middle Eastern dishes and are essential in curries, salsas, chutneys, guacamole, and pho. 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.

They show strong adaptability to different locations and grow well in loose garden soil as well as in slightly more nutrient‑rich substrates.

Its original range extends from Europe through western to central Asia. Today it is cultivated in many regions of northern and eastern Africa as well as in temperate and subtropical climates worldwide, and in some of these areas it can also be found naturalised. It prefers clear, cool, flowing water and grows at springs, streams, ditches and moist sites, where it thrives partly fully submerged and partly on muddy banks. It is considered an indicator plant for clean, clear running waters.

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.

Chervil adds aroma to vinegar and oil and is valued in low‑carb and diet cuisine for its intense flavor. Fresh leaves work well in smoothies and as a garnish, while dried leaves are suitable for herb blends. It freezes well, retains its aroma, and enriches bowls, wraps, vegetarian dishes, cold soups, light marinades, herb pestos, dips, and herb creams. Even light broths and clear stocks gain a fresh note from it. In natural gardens, flowering chervil also serves as an important plant for pollinators. Traditionally, chervil was used in herbal teas, simple infusions, as well as poultices and washes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThanks to its bushy growth, chervil thrives reliably in open ground, cold frames, raised beds, polytunnels, and pots on balconies and terraces. It grows quickly, is easy to care for, continuously produces new leaves, and delivers stable yields in moist, partially shaded conditions. The plant thrives in loose garden soil as well as nutrient‑rich potting soil, remains compact, and is well suited for shady locations and urban gardening. Regular harvesting promotes dense growth and ensures aromatic foliage throughout the season. Due to its short cultivation period, chervil is ideal for quick and staggered successive sowings and for an early start to the season.

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. A tea made from savory also supports digestion. In cosmetics, the plant's essential oils are used in skin care products. As a bee pasture, this plant is an ideal addition to any garden, and its long flowering period attracts many beneficial insects such as bees, butterflies, and hoverflies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\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\u003eLamiaceae\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLife cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Perennial\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDays to harvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e 120 days\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlant height approx.:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 cm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRoot type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep rooter\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNutrient requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWater requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWinter hardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to -20°C\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLocation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sunny\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Permeable, sandy loam soil\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003epH value:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.5 to 7.5\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 17-23 °C\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGermination time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10-15 days\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlant and row spacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25x25 cm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination ability of seeds:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 2-3\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u0026nbsp;years\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eMixed culture\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 Bean, Beetroot\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnfavorable mixed culture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Basil\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eSowing by climate zone\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.

In many regions of Europe it is considered a classic throat and voice herb and has been used for soothing herbal blends for centuries. Its yellow flowers are also suitable for natural decorations, herb wreaths and craft uses. As a wild perennial it is a valuable insect plant and supports biodiversity in the garden. In addition, agrimony is used for gargle solutions and herbal baths, as its mild tannins soothe skin and mucous membranes. In folk herbalism it serves as a gentle wash and poultice herb for stressed skin. The fresh or dried leaves can be processed into plant extracts and herbal wines, while the dried flower spikes are used in scented pillows and natural herb arrangements.

The plant is easy to care for, winter hardy and can be harvested for many years. Its flowers attract numerous beneficial insects and strengthen ecological balance. Thanks to its deep taproot it continues to grow steadily even in dry, poor soils, regenerates well after each cut and can be harvested multiple times. It tolerates full sun and windy sites, remains vigorous even in heat and is well suited for ecological, low‑maintenance garden concepts. Agrimony also thrives in nutrient‑poor, stony and slightly compacted soils, shows high tolerance to fluctuating rainfall and stays vital even in dry summers. Its clump‑forming growth provides stability, while the fine leaf hairs reduce evaporation and increase drought resistance. Once established it requires little care, responds well to cutting, sprouts reliably again and supports a wide range of pollinators over many weeks due to its long flowering

It complements meat and braised dishes, stews, soups, sauces, fish, poultry, and vegetables, and pairs especially well with potatoes, tomatoes, courgettes, aubergines, and pulses. Its delicate aroma enhances vinegar, oil, marinades, grilling blends, herb mixes, herb butter, dips, and savoury baked goods. When dried, its flavour remains intact and enriches roasts, ragouts, pasta sauces, pizza, herb oils, herb salts, and oven dishes. It elevates mushroom dishes, risotto, lamb and game dishes, pickled vegetables, infused honey, breads and pastries, fillings, and savoury pancakes. In food preservation, it is used to flavour smoked goods, infused oils, and savoury pastes. In beverages, it adds distinctive notes to herbal teas, infusions, lemonades, and syrups. Its flowers are edible and decorate salads, desserts, and herb platters. Historically, creeping thyme was used in teas, infusions, inhalations, incense, herbal baths, and compresses, and found its place in scented cushions, herb bundles, and aromatic household blends.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCreeping thyme grows reliably and low‑creeping in open ground, raised beds, rock gardens, herb spirals, green roofs, and containers on balconies and terraces. It is extremely easy to care for, 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 low, responds very well to pruning, and regenerates quickly. Thanks to its robust nature, creeping thyme is ideal for urban gardening, lean substrates, and exposed sites. Its dense growth suppresses weeds and stabilises light soils on slopes. As a perennial and winter‑hardy species, it is perfect for long‑term herb beds and delivers reliable harvests. Its long flowering period provides valuable food for pollinators, and as a slug‑resistant plant it enriches permaculture and nature‑friendly gardens. Creeping thyme is also walkable and releases a pleasant scent when stepped on. Its flat growth warms early in the year and starts into vegetation quickly. It is excellent for greening wall tops, joints, and dry stone walls, forming long‑lasting, tread‑resistant cushions.

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.

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.

After flowering in summer, the plant develops oil-rich seeds, which are used as a spice for bread seasonings, meat dishes, in Christmas baking, in spirits, oils, teas, and much more. Its digestive properties are particularly evident in the classic culinary and medicinal combination with fennel and caraway. It is often used to relieve stomach aches and colds due to its health-promoting effects.\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\u003eApiaceae\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLife cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Annual\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDays to harvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e 90 days\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlant height approx.:\u003c\/strong\u003e 70 cm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRoot type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep 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 3°C\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLocation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sunny\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Permeable, humus-rich loamy 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 Dark germinator\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSowing depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 cm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOptimal germination temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15-25 °C\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGermination time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7-28 days\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlant and row spacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20x30 cm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination ability of seeds:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 3-4 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 Pea, Cucumber, Lettuce, Carrot, Bean, Tomato, Cabbage, Coriander, Good King Henry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnfavorable mixed culture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hyssop\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 natural range extends across large parts of the temperate Northern Hemisphere, including Europe, Central Asia, Siberia, Mongolia and North America. The seed‑fertile wild form is widespread in these regions and is characterised by its robustness and genetic diversity. The name “tarragon” derives from the Latin \u003cem\u003edracunculus\u003c\/em\u003e (“little dragon”), referring either to its traditional use against snake bites or to its dragon‑like, twisted roots. Botanically, tarragon belongs to the family Asteraceae, the subfamily Asteroideae and the genus \u003cem\u003eArtemisia\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs early as the Middle Ages, tarragon was cultivated in Arab and Persian gardens and reached southern Europe via the Mediterranean region. In the 16th century the plant found its established place in French cuisine, where it quickly became indispensable for its fine aroma.

Its fine aroma enhances classic sauces such as Béarnaise and Hollandaise, pairs beautifully with egg dishes, salads and pickled vegetables, and the fresh leaves have traditionally been used to support digestion. Tarragon is an essential herb in European cuisine and is also used for flavoured oils, herb vinegars and spice blends. It adds depth to potato and vegetable dishes, herb quark, marinades and light summer cooking. In preservation it is used for pickling cucumbers and vegetables, for aromatising vinegars and oils, and it can be dried or frozen for storage. It also plays a role in herbal medicine, for example in teas, tinctures or as part of mild digestive herb blends. Its fine leaves lend herb salts, butter variations and homemade dressings an elegant, slightly sweet‑spicy note.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTarragon grows reliably in open ground, greenhouses and containers. The plant is easy to care for, winter‑hardy and can be harvested over many years. It prefers sunny sites and well‑drained, rather dry soils. Thanks to its robust nature it continues to grow well even in less‑than‑ideal soils, regenerates quickly after each cut and allows multiple harvests. It forms long‑lived clumps, is excellent for herb spirals and nature‑friendly gardens, and shows good tolerance to drought and fluctuating weather conditions. It is also resistant to many common herb diseases, copes well with temporary heat periods and remains vigorous even in poor soils. Tarragon can be easily divided or propagated by cuttings, which rejuvenates older plants and allows stocks to be expanded with little effort. With its compact, upright growth it is also suitable for smaller gardens, balconies and pot cultivation, and remains structurally stable even with regular cutting.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cem\u003eCompared with other Artemisia species, tarragon is the classic aromatic culinary herb with a fine, anise‑like flavour – ideal for

Due to its sensitivity to cold, the heat-loving plant should be grown in spring or summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99; color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #1f2124;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eGeneral information\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99; color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlant family:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fabaceae\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLife cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u0026nbsp;Annual\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDays to harvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e 70 days\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlant height approx.:\u003c\/strong\u003e 60 cm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRoot type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep rooter\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNutrient requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWater requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWinter hardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 0°C\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLocation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u0026nbsp;Sunny until semi shady\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Permeable, sandy loam soil\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003epH value:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 to 8\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003cu\u003eSowing and planting information\u003c\/u\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGerm type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark germinator\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSowing depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-1,5 cm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOptimal germination temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15-20 °C\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGermination time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5-10 days\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlant and row spacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30x30 cm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination ability of seeds:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-2 years\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eMixed culture\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOptimal mixed culture: \u003c\/strong\u003ePotatoes, cabbage, cucumbers, berry bushes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnfavorable mixed culture:\u003c\/strong\u003e -\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eSowing by climate zone\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #e4cc99;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSubtropic climate (Mediterranean) (e. g.

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.

European species belonging to the family Lamiaceae, the subfamily Nepetoideae, and the genus \u003cem\u003eThymus\u003c\/em\u003e. Its natural distribution range lies within Europe. Thyme as a medicinal and culinary herb was already described in ancient literature by authors such as Theophrastus (4th–3rd century BC) and Dioscorides (1st century AD).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWild thyme is a native, non‑Mediterranean thyme species that prefers moderately dry to fresh meadows, semi‑dry grasslands, path edges, and open slopes. In contrast to \u003cem\u003eThymus vulgaris\u003c\/em\u003e, it is adapted to cooler, temperate climates and naturally occurs in regions with higher rainfall and fresher soils.

Medieval herbals mention its use in infusions, fumigations, and compresses, often associated with warming or cleansing properties. In monastic gardens, it was considered an easy‑to‑cultivate, aromatic herb that was versatile in both cooking and traditional healing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor centuries, wild thyme remained an important wild and household remedy in Central and Northern Europe. Its aroma is regarded as earthier, warmer, and milder than that of the Mediterranean common thyme.

It pairs well with root vegetables, cabbage, pulses, tomatoes, and courgettes, and is suitable for herb blends, herb butter, dips, pestos, marinades, and savoury baked goods. When dried, it enriches roasts, ragouts, pasta sauces, herb oils, herb salts, and oven dishes. It also refines risotto, lamb dishes, pickled vegetables, savoury jams, infused honey, and chutneys.

It thrives particularly well in sunny to semi‑shaded, dry to fresh 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 undemanding nature, it is ideal for urban gardening, exposed sites, and nature‑friendly gardens. It requires little water, withstands dry periods and frost phases, and stabilises light soils with its prostrate to slightly upright growth. As a perennial species, it is perfect for long‑term herb beds, wild herb meadows, and permaculture systems, delivering reliable harvests. In mixed culture, it shows good compatibility, and its long flowering period from June to September provides valuable food for pollinators.

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.
