Creating an edible garden is the one of the sheer joys of gardening and when you can combine this with the love of flowers you get the best of both worlds. This month when you take a visit to the Garden Centre selecting plants for your garden remember that many ornamental flowering plants are also edible.

Imagine sitting down to a salad that was made up of Calendulas, Nasturtiums, Violets, Rose petals, Lavender and Apple Blossoms. Many of these plants will bloom for weeks on end and create a colourful visual feast for both the garden and table.

To keep your plants happy and healthy applied Seasol (30mL per 9 litres of water – standard watering can) every 2 to 4 weeks. Seasol is your complete garden health treatment. It promotes healthy growth, stimulates flowering and fruiting and helps protect against, heat or frost depending on where you are in Australia.
