🌸 Ocimum basilicum ‘Violet Blossom’ – Purple Basil

A striking basil with dark purple leaves and fragrant floral notes.
Culinary use: Ideal for pesto, caprese salads, pasta, and garnishes. Adds colour and a gentle clove-like twist to dishes.

Lighting: Prefers full sun – at least 6 hours of bright, direct light daily.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry.

🌿 Salvia officinalis ‘Silverdome’ – Compact Silver Sage

A beautiful dwarf sage with silvery foliage and strong aroma.
Culinary use: Perfect for seasoning roast vegetables, stuffing, poultry, and Mediterranean dishes. Also makes a calming herbal tea.

Lighting: Full sun is ideal, but it will tolerate partial shade.
Watering: Allow the top layer of soil to dry between waterings. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.

🍃 Origanum vulgare ‘Hot & Spicy’ – Spicy Oregano

A bold oregano with a spicy kick and strong essential oils.
Culinary use: Excellent for pizzas, tomato sauces, grilled meats, and marinades. A little goes a long way!

Lighting: Needs full sun for best flavour and compact growth.
Watering: Water when the soil has dried out a bit—this herb prefers slightly dry conditions.

🌱 Persicaria odorata – Vietnamese Coriander (Rau Răm)

Not a true coriander, but a popular herb in Southeast Asian cuisine.
Culinary use: Common in Vietnamese soups, salads, and curries. Offers a peppery, citrusy coriander-like flavour that holds up in hot dishes.

Lighting: Bright, indirect light or light shade. Avoid intense midday sun indoors.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist. It loves humidity and regular watering, especially in warm weather.
