Swiss Chard originates from a wild version of beetroot that naturally grew in the Mediterranean. The Greek philosopher, Aristotle wrote about chard in the fourth century B.C. The original variety has been traced back to the largest Mediterranean island, Sicily not Switzerland as you might think. The name 'Swiss' comes from the Swiss botanist Koch who determined the scientific name of this plant in the 19th century. Rhubarb Red Chard is distinguished by its bouquet of wrinkled, slightly savoyed rich green leaves and bright red-coloured stems. The leaves grow upright and tall from a dense rosette of ribbed stems. It has subtle earthy flavours along with slight notes of tang, due to its betalain pigment content Tasting note: Earthy & salty About Sow Delicious In 2013, Vanessa Jacobs set out to find the simplest way to grow a garden fit for a foodie, giving people the opportunity to proudly plant a garden that is Sow Delicious!

The plant is native to Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru and was widely grown in South Africa beginning in the 19th century. It is unrelated to true gooseberries of the genus  Ribes  (family Grossulariaceae). Cape gooseberries are bittersweet, slightly tart, and quite juicy. They get their name from the paper-thin cape that covers and protects the fruit inside until it ripens. The casing is green at first, fading to a light brown as the fruit ripens. If kept inside its casing, a Cape Gooseberry can keep for up to 45 days Tasting note: Sweet-tart & pineappley Hales Best Spanspek has been a favourite melon of gardeners for over 100 years.

The flavourful plant was introduced to the Liguria region by the Romans who enjoyed an early version of pesto as a bread spread. To this day the most prized pesto comes from this area made with this specific variety of basil. This variety of basil has a lower tendency to become bitter after cooking. The plant is also less likely to bolt, meaning it is less likely to flower quickly in hot weather. It has large soft bright green and mildly crinkled leaves Tasting note: Aromatic & minty Oregano can be traced back to as early as 3000 BC when it was used by the Assyrians. During Greek and Roman times, it was one of the most commonly used herbs for health and medicinal purposes. Oregano's name can be credited to the Greeks. It is a combination of the Greek words "oros" and "ganos" which together mean "joy of the mountains". It is a shrub-like herb with multiple-branched stems with narrow, arrow-shaped, soft, fuzzy textured leaves. As the plant grows, the more mature stems become woody at the base. It is a perennial plant and is often grown for 3-4 years, but in cooler climates, it is often grown as an annual. In the late summer, small white flowers bloom from the flower spikes (bracts) at the top of the stems. Typically, Oregano is harvested just before the flowers bloom, when the flavour and aroma is at their peak Tasting note: Woody & camphor notes Sage is a herb that is prized for its strong herbal aroma and earthy flavour and can be used fresh or dried. This evergreen shrub is part of the mint family. It has oval, dusty grey-green leaves with woody stems. Because of the fine, velveteen hair-like projections on sage leaves, they have a slightly fuzzy or fluffy appearance. It is a perennial plant that grows about 60cm tall. The flowers are borne in spikes that will attract bees & butterflies to your garden. It originated in the Mediterranean and has a long history of medicinal and culinary use. Sage is often mentioned as the herb of immortality, domestic virtue, health, and wisdom. Sage was a sacred ceremonial herb of the Romans. It has been cultivated for both culinary and medicinal purposes for many centuries in Europe Tasting note: Hints of earthy pine About Sow Delicious In 2013, Vanessa Jacobs set out to find the simplest way to grow a garden fit for a foodie, giving people the opportunity to proudly plant a garden that is Sow Delicious!
