Petal, Leaf, Seed shows you how to unlock the hidden larder of tastes and textures in your garden. Many of the ingredients are amongst the smallest and easiest crops you can grow, but will provide you with some of the biggest flavours. Divided into three sections, each of which has its own growing guide, Petal covers spring, summer, herb and vegetable flowers; Leaf covers annual and perennial herbs, exotic and fruit leaves; Seed covers nuts, and herb, vegetable and flower seeds. The more than 60 recipes use techniques such as crystallising, infusions, salts, rubs and condiments, salsas and tisanes, and pastry, pasta and batters. As well as basil and mint sugar to scatter on your summer fruit and fig leaf schnapps, they include seeded water biscuits with marinated feta, tempura wasabi leaves with ginger leaf dipping sauce, hot and sour beef salad with mustard flowers, and spring flower cheesecake.

** An accompanying journal to the original & bestselling Almanacs by Lia Leendertz.** The Almanac Journal is a place for you to create your own personal almanac, starting and ending at any point in the year.

There are pages where you can note all of the firsts: first swift, first rose, first frost; a place to squirrel away your favourite foraging locations - and to jot down the recipes you create from them. There are also pages for pressed flowers and seaweeds, sketches and pictures, feathers and drying leaves. Make it your own. Lia Leendertz is an award-winning garden and food writer, her reinvention of the traditional rural almanac has become an annual must-have for readers eager to connect with the seasons, appreciate the outdoors and discover ways to mark and celebrate each month.
