Cooks Bumper Essential Herb Plant Collection

No garden, patio, balcony or window box should be without some herbs. Easy to grow and to manage, many do well in pots in small spaces, and together they will provide virtually year-round, tasty additions to a vast number of meals, so that no self-respecting cook can afford to be without them. Herbs can turn a meal into a feast!

Plants are carefully chosen to provide a selection suitable for growing in any garden to give bumper crops for all aspiring chefs! This collection contains 9 large 9cm pots of the following herbs:

French Tarragon A delicious herb and great paired with chicken and fish. Also add a few sprigs to flavour vinegar to make a superb salad dressing.

Chives The must have herb. The leaves have a mild onion flavour which when finely chopped can be added to many dishes, we love it chopped into scrambled eggs.

Lemon Thyme A wonderful and unique flavour adding citrus notes to meat and fish dishes. Looks very attractive grown in pots and window boxes.

Garden Mint The traditional garden mint, full of flavour and superb for making mint sauce or adding to new potatoes when cooking.

Purple Sage Strong and robustly flavoured and much famed for adding to stuffing, especially with pork or poultry. Evergreen foliage.

Common Thyme Beautiful, easy to grow and so tasty, we use so much of this plant every day. Perfect for seasoning meat or adding to home-made soups.

Oregano Hot and Spicy This is an absolute favourite of ours, a traditional Oregano flavour coupled with a slightly spicy kick! Perfect for adding to fajitas or home-made pizzas.

Curled Parsley A good dark curled leaf variety, great for so many dishes and highly nutritious.

French Parsley A must have flat-leaved parsley can be used to enhance the favour of a wide range of dishes, as well as making a wonderful garnish.
