Like the cherry trees, the Cherry Dogwood also produces interesting, edible berries that can be used for many things.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">The natural distribution of Cherry Dogwood extends from Central and Southeast Europe to Western Asia around the Caucasus, but it has also been successfully planted among others, in Sweden and North America.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">The Cherry Dogwood is usually used for its ornamental value early&nbsp;during year. With its abundant flowering on bare twigs in March-April, it is an invigorating sight before much else has had time to bloom. As such, it also provides a valuable early source of nectar and pollen for pollinators. The flowers are small and yellow and sit in clusters.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">From the flowers it becomes<meta charset="utf-8"> then olive-shaped red berries that are edible. The berries ripen in late summer or early fall. The fruit is hard, sour and harsh before it is ripe but softens and increases in sweetness as it ripens. Another guide to when the fruit is ripe is to look at the ground - when the fruit starts to fall, it has sweetened. For easier harvesting, you can then shake the branches and then pick up the berries that fall, this because they do not all ripen at the same time.<span class="Apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">The berries described as cranberry/sour cherry/plum taste can be used to make jelly, jam, juice, fruit wine and as a cocktail berry. The kernels can be roasted, ground and then used as a coffee substitute and unripe fruits can be put in and eaten as a substitute for olives. The Cherry Dogwood has long been used in Mediterranean countries and Western Asia precisely for its fruits and the medicinal qualities they are considered to have. The berries contain a high content of vitamin C and the antioxidant anthocyanin, which gives the fruit its color.<span class="Apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">The Cherry Dogwood is self-pollinating, but the harvest can be more abundant if several individuals are planted together.</span></p> <h4 data-mce-fragment="1"><strong data-mce-fragment="1">Cultivation:</strong></h4> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">The Cherry Dogwood thrives best in full sun to partial shade, but also works well in shadier locations, but then sets fewer berries.<span class="Apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">If it is allowed to grow freely, it will become a wide and full-bodied bush. It is also perfectly possible to stem it into a small tree and the crown can be as wide as the tree can be tall. Free-growing, it becomes multi-stemmed, but it is just as well to choose to keep and stem one of the stems. Cherry Dogwood can also be used as a hedge plant as it responds well to pruning.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">Has an upright growing habit, but if the branches become long, their tips may start to point downwards.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">The Cherry Dogwood&nbsp;prefers well-drained, nutrient-rich soil and is not picky about pH, although calcareous soil is particularly favorable.

The flowers then change to olive green small, scaly leaves.</p> <p>The tamarisk is known for its ability to absorb and concentrate salts in its plant parts. This is useful where you have an outlet for gray water. Gray water is the water that comes out when we clean used water from our kitchens and bathrooms - e.g. dishwashers, washing machines, showers, etc. When this water is purified, various salts are often left behind, which are carried out into the runoff. It is in these outlets that plants such as the Praktamarisken are planted, which seems to be one of the most efficient plants precisely at taking up salt from the ground it grows in. Inability to take up excess salts in the soil can result in problems for surrounding plants, then it affects their natural ability to absorb water via osmosis.</p> <p><meta charset="utf-8"> You can also grow the Praktamarisken as a shrub.

<p><strong>Rosmarin av den härdiga sorten 'Arp': nuvarande höjd 5–10 cm</strong><br><br><strong>Trivialnamn:</strong> Rosmarin<br><strong>Vetenskapligt namn:</strong> <em>Rosmarinus officinalis</em><br><strong>Familj:</strong> Lamiaceae</p> <h4>Växthistoria &amp; användning</h4> <p>Rosmarin är en klassisk kryddväxt från Medelhavsområdet med lång användning i både matlagning och naturmedicin. Sorten 'Arp' är särskilt framtagen för att klara kallare klimat och räknas som en av de mest köldtåliga rosmarinsorterna – den klarar temperaturer ner till omkring –23 °C i skyddat läge. Bladen används färska eller torkade i allt från bröd och marinader till grytor, grillrätter och örtte. Rosmarin sägs också ha stärkande egenskaper för blodcirkulation och minne, och används traditionellt som ört i te eller tinkturer.</p> <h4>Odling</h4> <p>Planteras i soligt och varmt läge i väldränerad jord – gärna sandblandad och kalkrik. 'Arp' kan i de mildaste delarna av landet övervintra på friland, särskilt i skyddade, torra lägen. I övrigt odlas den bäst i stor kruka som kan flyttas till svalt och ljust utrymme över vintern. Vattnas måttligt – tål inte stående väta.</p> <h4>Egenskaper</h4> <p><strong>Årighet:</strong> Flerårig<br><strong>Växtläge:</strong> Sol<br><strong>Höjd:</strong> 60–100 cm (kan hållas lägre)<br><strong>Växtzon:</strong> 1–2 (möjligen zon 3 i skyddat läge)<br><strong>Skörd:</strong> Året om<br></p>

<p>'Tearoma®' is a tea variety bred in Switzerland for its good hardiness and ability to be grown outdoors all year round in our climate. It is still a new phenomenon that you can grow tea in Sweden, not all tea varieties can cope but the ones with the best hardiness on the market today are this variety and the Dutch-bred variety <a rel="noopener" title="Tea bush 'Tea By Me': Hardy variety (Camellia sinensis) 2 &amp; 3 years 30-50 cm" href="https://tradgardsdags.nu/products/tebuske-tetrad-tea-by-me-camellia-sinensis-2-3-ar-30-50-cm" target="_blank"><span style="color: rgb(78, 153, 29);"><strong>'Tea by Me'</strong></span></a> .</p> <p> Tea bushes/trees 'Tea By Me':</p> <ul> <li> <span data-mce-fragment="1">Height: 30-40 cm</span> </li> <li> Height: 40-50 cm</li> </ul> <p data-mce-fragment="1"> <strong>Common names:</strong> <span>Tea, Tea bush, Tea tree, Tea plant</span><br> <strong>Scientific name:</strong> <em><span>Camellia sinensis</span><br></em> <strong>Family:</strong> <span data-mce-fragment="1">Theaceae</span></p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"><strong><span data-mce-fragment="1">Plant history &amp; use:</span></strong></p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"> Tea is consumed all over the world and is the second most common drink after water. The tea bush contains theine, which counteracts fatigue, and <em>theanine,</em> which has a calming effect, unlike coffee, which only has the stimulating properties of caffeine (=theine). A cup of tea can therefore be invigorating and calming at the same time.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"> It is mainly the leaf buds and leaves that are picked to brew tea, but sometimes the flowers are also used.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"> From the tea bush Camellia sinensis, you can make different types of tea: white, yellow, green, blue (oolong), black and “dark” tea. The difference between them is made up of different fermentation and oxidation processes. White tea is not even allowed to oxidize, while “dark” tea is allowed to both oxidize and ferment for long periods. The types in between are gradually more or less in one direction or the other, in the order listed above. All types have their health benefits, sometimes different.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">Red tea (rooibos) comes from a different plant species, the Rooibos bush.<span data-mce-fragment="1"> </span><em data-mce-fragment="1">Aspalathus linearis</em> <em data-mce-fragment="1">.</em></p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"> Tea leaves are also used in cooking in Asia - for example, <em>Tea Leaf Salad</em> (fermented leaves) in Burma and (fresh leaves) in Thailand.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"> <strong>Culture:</strong></p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"> Tea has recently started to be grown in Sweden and there is a successful tea plantation on Gotland that grows for commercial use. The tea bush grows in its natural environment at high altitudes where it gets colder at night, and where it can also be cold during the day. The tea bush can be overwintered outdoors in Sweden, depending on the location and circumstances, the plants may need to be covered for the winter (e.g. with straw).</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"> Protect from cold winds with some windbreak, such as non-woven fabric attached to posts around the plant, and cover with straw or similar during the winter months.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"> Tea thrives in acidic soil, use Rhododendron soil when repotting the plant for the first time.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"><strong>Features:</strong></p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"> Year: Perennial<br data-mce-fragment="1"> Growing position: sun/partial shade<br data-mce-fragment="1"> Height: 1-2 meters<br> Growing zone: 1-4</p>
