Self-seeds more efficiently than other basil varieties. Use a well-drained, humus-rich soil and place in partial shade or full sun, it will do well in both. Allowing the soil to dry out between waterings will increase the plant's aroma production (= more flavor) - this is a result of the plant's response to stress. Grow in a pot or flower bed as a low-growing herb. If you grow it outdoors and want to let it grow there year after year, you can let it flower and set seed - it will most likely self-sow and germinate next year. If you want the plant to focus more on foliage growth, you can cut off inflorescences before they have time to develop. Basil is easy to take cuttings from, make a diagonal cut with a clean tool just below a leaf. The cutting should be around 15 cm.

Holy Basilica / Tulsi (Ocimum tenuiflorum)

35 SEK

SEEDS (100 pcs/bag) Common names: Sacred basil, Tulsi, Tulasi, Kaprao, Holy Basil, Hot Basil Scientific name: Ocimum tenuiflorum / Ocimum sanctum Family: Mint family Plant history & use: Sacred basil is more spicy and peppery than the closely related "sweet" basil (Ocimum basilicum) we usually eat in the North. It is also one of the few basil types that can grow into small trees. Sacred basil is often confused with Thai basil (Ocimum basilicum var. thyrsiflora) - which is a different species. Because of this confusion and the rarer occurrence of Sacred basil, Thai basil is sometimes mistakenly used in cooking where Sacred basil is actually the correct ingredient. An example of such use can be found in the Thai dish Pad Kaprao, which is named after the Sacred basil’s Thai name kaprao. The difference between these two basils is that Thai basil is sweeter and more licorice-like while Sacred basil is spicier and more peppery, hence the name Hot Basil sometimes used as a designation. Besides cooking, the plant’s leaves and flowers are also used to make calming tea. As one of the most applied ancient medicinal plants, Sacred basil has been used to treat, among other things, common colds, headaches, and various stress disorders. For these purposes, the stem, leaves, and seeds are used. In traditional communities, the herb is also used as a natural mosquito repellent by applying the plant’s aroma to the skin. <meta charset="utf-8">Similarly, dried leaves have been mixed with stored grains to repel insects for hundreds of years. Cultivation: Use well-drained, humus-rich soil and place in partial shade or full sun; it tolerates both. Thrives in moist soil but not wet. If you let the soil dry out between waterings, it will increase the plant’s aroma production (= more flavor) – this is a result of the plant’s response to stress. Plant in a pot with plenty of room for the roots to give the plant a chance to grow into a small tree. Bring the pot indoors before winter as the plant does not thrive at temperatures below 15°C. If the plant is slowly led into a winter rest, it can survive temperatures down to -1°C, but this slows growth. If you want the plant to focus more on leaf growth, you can cut off flower clusters before they develop. Basil is easy to take cuttings from; make a diagonal cut with a clean tool just below a leaf. The cutting should be about 15 cm. Remove the lower leaves from the cutting and place it in a glass of water that you change regularly. Plant in soil when roots have developed. Sowing: Place the seeds on a moist layer of soil. Press the seeds lightly into the soil for good contact. Keep the sowing moist. One way to maintain good moisture is to cover the sowing with plastic with air holes. Characteristics: Lifespan: Perennial Light: sun/partial shade Height: 30-150 cm Germination time: 5-15 days

SEEDS (20 pcs/bag) Common names: Greek Mountain Tea, Mursalski Tea, Ironwort, Shepherd's Tea, Greek Mountain Tea, <meta charset="utf-8">Mursalski Trigradski Tea Scientific name: Sideritis scardica Family: Lamiaceae Plant history & use: Greek Mountain Tea, also known as Mursalski Tea, has a fascinating history in traditional medicine and culture in the Balkan region. The plant originates from the area below Mursalitsa Mountain in the Rhodope Mountains, Bulgaria. For a long time, this aromatic herb has been used by the people of the Rhodope Mountains for its medicinal properties and to add flavor to various drinks. Shepherds have for centuries drunk the tea to keep warm and alert during their journeys. The plant's popularity has spread beyond its native lands thanks to its unique qualities and benefits. Among the most valuable qualities of Greek Mountain Tea is its medicinal value. It has traditionally been used to ease digestive troubles and has anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce swelling and pain. Its aromatic leaves are used to make tea and drinks that provide a refreshing and spicy taste experience. Most of the genus <meta charset="utf-8">Ironworts (Sideritis) are called "Mountain Tea," many of which are specifically called Greek Mountain Tea, although not all varieties originate from Greece. As described above, these seeds come from the unique variety that grows just below Mursalitsa Mountain in Bulgaria and has been drunk by the Rhodope people for centuries. The tea has different taste and effect depending on where it has grown—even if it is the same species. This is partly due to soil and altitude. Teas from Sideritis scardica can thus be distinguished and for example called "Olympus Mountain Tea" if grown on Mt. Olympus in Greece, "Titan Mountain Tea" if grown on Mt. Othrys (Titan Mountain), and "Mursalski Mountain Tea" if grown on Mt. Mursalitsa. Cultivation: Greek Mountain Tea thrives best in sunny locations and well-drained soil. This perennial herb loves warmth and is very drought-resistant once established. For best results, the plant should be overwintered frost-free. However, it can survive outdoors in favorable locations in zones 1-2. To obtain the highest possible content of bioactive compounds in the leaves, harvesting early in the morning is recommended. Sowing: Sow the seeds in moist seed soil and cover only with a thin layer of soil. Cover the sowing with plastic equipped with small air holes. Keep the sowing moist. Germination usually occurs within 10 days.

Silk tree in various sizes: <ul> <li>Height 80-100 cm</li> <li>Height 140-160 cm <meta charset="utf-8">[PICKUP ONLY] </li> <li>Height 175-200 cm [PICKUP ONLY] </li> </ul> Common names: Silk tree, Persian Silk Tree, Pink Silk Tree, Tree of Happiness, Mimosa Scientific name: Albizia julibrissin Family: Fabaceae Plant history & use: The silk tree is a striking tree whose origin can be traced to the area around Iran & Azerbaijan through China, to Korea. The tree is characterized by its fluffy, light pink flowers that resemble a silky feather crown. Its beauty has made it a cherished tree worldwide. The silk tree has also been used for its edible and medicinal properties for centuries. Young leaves are eaten as a vegetable - boiled or steamed. They are described as having an aromatic taste. Flowers are also boiled for consumption. A historically well-known kitchen plant in its native regions. <meta charset="utf-8">The plant’s bark, leaves, flowers & flower buds are used to make tea and extracts with reputed health benefits. Flowers are harvested when opening and the bark is harvested in spring or late summer to be dried for later use. Tea made from the flowers is said to have a delicate, sweet taste and to relieve stress, tension, and even mild depression. This is likely one of the reasons the tree is also called "The Tree of Happiness." Please judge for yourself if this holds true for you. It is also possible to make jelly from freshly opened flowers. In traditional Asian medicine, it has been used among other things to calm nerves and as a mild sedative for sleep difficulties. Flowers have been observed to be effective in attracting bees & butterflies (and hummingbirds in America). <meta charset="utf-8"> This tree, like other plants in the Pea family (Fabaceae), has a partnership with soil bacteria that bind nitrogen from the air and fix it to the tree’s roots. In this way, the surrounding soil is enriched with nitrogen that would otherwise be inaccessible to plants – therefore we call plants with such a partnership Soil Improvers. The wood is also used to make furniture. Cultivation: The silk tree can be grown outdoors in the more favorable places in Sweden (roughly from Uppsala and southwards according to plant hardiness zones). <meta charset="utf-8">However, the tree is hardy down to -25<meta charset="utf-8">°C, so the geographical location is often ambiguous and success largely depends on the actual growing site. It thrives best in warm and sunny places – a good spot is sheltered from wind against a south-facing wall. Young shoots can be sensitive to cold and frost. Please protect the tree during winter if grown outdoors, for example with straw around the base and wind protection in the form of fleece attached to stakes around the tree if it stands in an exposed location. This is reasonably only necessary the first winter after purchasing these 2-year-old trees. <meta charset="utf-8">The silk tree can otherwise be grown in a pot that is overwintered in a sheltered place. <meta charset="utf-8">The silk tree is a fast-growing tree with a relatively low water need that can stand in direct sun. The tree prefers well-drained soil and moderate watering. More precisely: water deeply but infrequently to encourage faster growth. Fairly drought-tolerant. Tolerant to pruning. Can be shaped to grow close to a house wall, for example. Pruning is done in late winter or early spring. Characteristics: Longevity: Perennial Light: sun Height: 5-7 m Hardiness zone: 1-4
