20.01.2022 Calendula Growing Calendula How To Care For Calendula Bright yellow and orange flowers, historically used for medicinal and culinary purposes, result from easy calendula care when growing this simple flower. Commonly called the pot marigold (Calendula officinalis), petals of the calendula flower are used in cooking and were used as yellow coloring in cheeses and butters in centuries past.... When used in stews, broths and salads, petals of the calendula flower add a spicy taste similar to saffron to many dishes. All parts of calendula plants are useful in many ways. The plant is said to stimulate the immune system and is currently used as an ingredient in many cosmetics. Flowers and leaves of the calendula may be dried and stored for later use. In the vegetable garden, calendula draws aphids away from valuable plants. While uses of calendula plants are diverse, growing calendula in the flower or herb garden is an optimum use of this attractive plant. Calendula plants are frost tolerant and somewhat cold hardy and add long-lasting color and beauty in a flower bed or container.

13.01.2022 It has been slow getting stock back in place since I moved to the new plot now over a year ago, I had been in my last address for many many years and so with every season I would get my pop up crops from what had gone to seed the previous year. So with this the best time off year to get seedlings up and running I have some spare seedling ready to go, all heirloom and GM free.... 12 Peter street Kelso.

10.01.2022 Ever heard of Rosella Jam? Possibly not, unless you are Australian? So what is it, you say? Only the best preserve known to man! Known more to our grandparent’s generation as Rosella. The Queensland Jam Plant is a native of Africa and Asia, yet has become such an iconic part of Aussie folklore, Rosella Jam is considered quintessentially Australian.... The Rosella is a medium shrub that is related to the Hibiscus family and needs a growing season of at least 6 months of warm weather to mature, so is best suited to tropical or sub-tropical areas. The fleshy red calyx can be used in salads, jellies, cranberry-like sauces, jam and cordial, syrups and wine. Furthermore, you could plant the hardy Rosella as a hedge, a fast growing windbreak or privacy screen in the summer garden.
