Thompson & Morgan Herb Mint. • The ideal accompaniment to roast lamb - homemade mint sauce is hard to beat! • Add to boiled new potatoes and peas, make mint jelly or garnish summer drinks. • Growing mint plants is so easy and this aromatic herb plant has a multitude of culinary uses. • This vigorous perennial is best planted in a container to control its spread. • Height: 30cm (12"). • Spread: 100cm (39").

Thompson & Morgan Herb Parsley Hamburg (Rooted) Arat. • An unusual ‘eat-all’ vegetable, closely related to traditional parsley. • Best grown for its delicious ‘parsnip-like’ roots which make a superb winter vegetable. • The large, tapered, white roots have a strong, nutty, celery flavour when roasted. • The leaves can be harvested as and when required and added to soups, stews and salads as a zesty seasoning, or simply as an attractive garnish. • The roots can be lifted from October onwards, but have good winter hardiness and keep well in the ground throughout winter. • Height and spread: 45cm (18").

Thompson & Morgan Herb Rocket. • A little known but very useful salad plant, Rocket can be used raw in salads or cooked lightly when it makes a delicious spinach substitute. • Late summer sowings of Rocket will carry on cropping into the winter if the plants are protected by cloches.

Thompson & Morgan Herb Rocket Wildfire. • An exciting new rocket variety from British breeding, with a robust, upright habit which keeps the leaves off the ground. • The serrated leaves are broader than traditional rocket and they pack a mighty punch - possibly the hottest of all wild rocket varieties! • Adds a great tangy, peppery flavour to salads, pasta or when used as a pizza topping. • Grow Rocket 'Wildfire' in containers, vegetable plots or on a windowsill indoors for crops all year round. Plants are slow to bolt. • Height and spread: 15cm (6").
