Grow Your Own Botanicals brings together an inspiration collection
of plants that add beauty, structure and interest to a garden as
well as providing an exciting harvest that can be used in
innovative ways in the kitchen and home. If you're buying seed kits
and botanical plant gifts or like to experiment with making your
own drinks, remedies or skin care, this handbook is the must-have
companion gardening guide. Now you can make your hibiscus cordial
for cocktails, herb and spice mix for your roasts or calendula face
cream with your own garden produce. Cinead offers general advice on
getting started - soil, composting, borders, containers, seed
saving, cuttings, intercropping, wildlife and biodiversity -before
moving on to the botanical garden. From plants that might
traditionally be recognised as a botanical, to more unusual exotic
varieties, this collection of 80 botanicals don't need huge space
to grow, but must harvest meaningful amounts to use to flavour
food, drinks and oils. Experiment with herbs like juniper, lemon
balm or nigella, grow evening primrose or liquorice with their
pretty flowers, and try out fruits like Chillean guava or yuzu.
This is gardenening at its most fun and fanciful!
