Alpine Strawberry Baron Von Solemacher
€3.50
The Baron von Solemacher alpine strawberry is an antique German variety that yields dainty clusters of deep red, sweet and juicy berries, which can be up to 25 mm in diameter.
Although we aren’t sure who the Baron was, we know that this variety was first offered by F.C. Heinemann, a German seed merchant, in 1935.
Alpine strawberries are hardy perennial plants that will flower and fruit from late spring until the first frosts.
It’s also an early-fruiting variety – the first strawberries may develop as quickly as 3 months after sowing.
They make a joyous addition to pastries but are also popular in their raw state.

Medicinal properties The juice of alpine strawberries can be applied to the skin to eliminate wrinkles.
How to eat Alpine strawberries can be cooked and used in jams, tarts and other sweet treats. But, in my opinion, the best way to experience their delicious flavour and scent is to grow them in your garden and eat them fresh, straight from plant to mouth.

Basil Thai
€3.50
Thai Basil (Ocimum basilicum var. thyrsiflora) is a spicy, anise-liquorice flavoured basil, which is also known as horapa in the Thai language. With their lovely purple stems and purple-veined leaves on a shiny, dark green background, these plants are not only grown for their culinary uses but also as ornamental specimens.
Thai Basil is widely used in the cuisines of Southeast Asia, including Thai, Vietnamese, Lao and Cambodian cuisines. It is best when eaten raw—in fact, a plate of raw Thai Basil leaves is often served as an accompaniment to the Vietnamese dish called pho.
The plant is said to have the ability to convey good fortune to its user while also protecting him or her from evil spirits. If a leaf is placed in one's pocket, it will cause money to enter one's pocket soon thereafter.

CARING
Expert tip To promote a nice bushy plant with lots of scented leaves, prune this basil early and often by pinching off the upper set of leaves. Cut the flowers off to prevent the leaves from becoming bitter.

Attracts bees and butterflies.
Pests
Repels aphids and mosquitoes. Improves the health of other plants (and people!). - HARVESTING
Pinch out leaves as you need them. As fresh basil wilts and loses both its colour and fragrance soon after harvesting, it is best to keep basil in a glass of water and in a cool, dry, dark spot. Use any that is left over from your recipes for a refreshing herbal tea.
EATING
Medicinal properties Refreshing and relaxing, basil stimulates appetite and lifts the mood. How to eat When it comes to Southeast Asian cuisine, Thai Basil is a leading spice used in stir-fry, noodle and curry recipes. Since it can be eaten both raw and cooked, it can be used to add anise flavour to any dish. Additionally, Thai Basil, coconuts and lime are great friends—so you can also use it to treat yourself with a refreshing iced sorbet!
