The Chioggia beet shows two colours when sliced, and the Black Cherry is a blue cherry tomato. Add the Flamboyant 2 radish, the Treenetaler carrot and the long green Vert Long Maraîcher cucumber, rounded off by common chives. All seeds are organic and reproducible, so you can save seed from your own harvest for the following season. The selection follows criteria such as ease of growing, originality and benefit to biodiversity.

The organic cotton bag measures 25 x 30 cm and stays useful long after sowing. The packaging is plastic-free, the cardboard is unprinted and compostable, and the paper and cardboard are FSC-certified. The wood of the labels comes from sustainably managed forests.

The back of every seed packet points to the maker's free app. It accompanies the cultivation of each variety with dedicated tutorials and offers personalised monitoring of your vegetable patch.

Write on the wooden labels as you sow, so that weeks later you still know which pellet holds the radish and which the carrot.

Once unpacked, the cotton bag works for shopping or for keeping the remaining seed packets together. As a present the kit suits a spring birthday or a move into a flat with a balcony.
