Whether you're looking for one particular variety of herb seeds, or want to kick start your culinary herbs garden, we can help you out.
Our culinary herb seed selection includes a wide variety of aromatic and flavoursome cooking herbs that feature in an abundance of cuisines from around the world, including French, Italian, Indian and of course, our very own good old British grub. More...
Whilst the volume of herbs that we use in cooking is relatively small and measured, the impact of a pinch of this or a sprinkle of that herb can make or break a home-cooked dish, baked specimen or even a drink! Imagine a classic roast leg of lamb without rosemary, a pasta dish without pesto, or a Mojito cocktail without the mint (Moroccan at that!) - in short, the subtle notes and nuances offered by herbs is, in culinary terms, almost priceless!
Our selection of aromatic and flavoursome herb seeds brings you our take on the best varieties of culinary herbs that can be used across a wide variety of cuisines, cakes and bakes and aperitifs including classic French, Italian, Indian, and of course our very own scrumptious British fodder. From fragrant and aromatic herbs to punchy, raunchy herbs that pack a punch, we've got a great selection of herb seeds for you to choose from, whatever your taste. You'll also find that we offer a herb seed collection to get your kitchen herb garden up and running, providing you with home-grown cooking herbs throughout the year.
A little note to consider when planning the planting of your herb seeds - some herbs such as basil are very tender, and will benefit from growing under protection in our temperate but unpredictable climes to protect from the likes of frost damage. A small cloche or (if you're quite ambitious) a greenhouse or polytunnel can help to protect the more tender sun-loving of your culinary herbs.
All herb seeds are sold directly from Victoriana Nursery Gardens here in Kent, and our seeds are carefully hand-packed at our DEFRA-approved packing station to ensure that you receive only the most viable seeds.
