“Little things seem nothing, but they give peace, like those meadow flowers which individually seem odorless but all together perfume the air.”
~ Georges Bernanos ~

Feature Plant:

Parsley!

Iron rich & a household favourite, Parsley is a versatile herb used extensively in culinary dishes and holistic health!

Parsley is a super easy herb to grow & is delicious to boot!
Originating from the rocky hillsides of Greece, modern varieties of Parsley prefer well drained, rich soil and thrive in a full sun (for the Italian leaf variety) to part shade position (for the curly leaf variety). Best kept with a regular watering regime, as required but be careful not to over-water. A top up of fertiliser every 4-6 weeks with an organic based fertiliser like Super Growth.
For best results, begin planting with a seaweed liquid tonic like Neptune and you’ll have crisp, tasty, fresh parsley for weeks to come!
Top Tip: Improve the flavours of your tomatoes and asparagus by planting your parsley nearby!

Feature Product:

Organic Super Booster Fertiliser Pellets!

Poultry Manure + Humates & Microbes!

the garden every 6-8 weeks. Our organic pellets

your garden.
