Cucurbita pepo

Table Queen is a classic heirloom acorn squash introduced in the 1930s and prized for its heavy yields and excellent eating quality. The compact, acorn-shaped fruits grow to around 14 cm across with a dark green rind enclosing thick, dry orange flesh. Rich, sweet and nutty in flavour, they are ideal for baking, roasting, stuffing or using anywhere pumpkin is called for. Allow fruits to fully mature on the vine to develop their best flavour and storage qualities.

Fragaria vesca

Baron Solemacher is a classic alpine strawberry producing small, deep red fruits with an intensely sweet flavour and rich strawberry fragrance. The berries may be smaller than modern garden strawberries, but are prized for their concentrated flavour and aroma.

A German alpine variety introduced in the 1930s, Baron Solemacher is a selection of the European woodland strawberry, Fragaria vesca. Plants form compact clumps rather than producing masses of runners, making them particularly useful for garden borders, containers and small spaces.

Hardy and well suited to cooler climates, plants can crop over an extended period once established. The aromatic fruits are excellent eaten fresh and are also suited to desserts, preserves and garnishes.

Approximately 75 seeds per packet.

Fragaria vesca

Rujana is a German heirloom alpine strawberry producing abundant crops of sweet, juicy red berries with the intense fragrance characteristic of wild strawberries. Also known as Fraises des Bois, the fruits are smaller than modern garden strawberries but exceptionally aromatic and richly flavoured.

Bred in Germany around 1920, Rujana was one of the early named selections of Fragaria vesca, the European woodland strawberry. Plants produce large white flowers followed by fruit over an extended season and form neat, compact clumps, making them particularly attractive in containers, hanging baskets and as edible garden edging.

The berries are excellent fresh, dry well and make beautifully fragrant jams and preserves. Both the fruit and leaves have also traditionally been used for herbal teas.

Approximately 70 seeds per packet.

Fragaria vesca

White Alpine is a charming alpine strawberry producing small, creamy white berries with an intensely sweet flavour and rich fragrance. The ripe berries remain pale rather than turning red and are exceptionally good eaten fresh, if they make it as far as the kitchen.

A form of the European woodland strawberry, Fragaria vesca, White Alpine grows as a compact perennial and produces few runners. Established plants can instead be divided to create new plants. Its neat growth makes it well suited to containers, garden edging and moist, partly shaded areas beneath taller plants or in fernery-style gardens.

The delicate berries are excellent fresh or used in desserts, while the leaves of Fragaria vesca have a long history of use as a herbal tea. Plants have a long productive season and appreciate fertile soil, regular feeding and consistent moisture.

Approximately 75 seeds per packet.

Swainsona formosa

Sturt’s Desert Pea is one of Australia’s most spectacular native wildflowers, producing distinctive blood-red, leaf-like flowers with glossy dark centres. Native to the arid and semi-arid regions of inland Australia, the flowers can reach approximately 90 mm long and are carried along sprawling stems that may trail for up to 2 m.

The floral emblem of South Australia, Sturt’s Desert Pea creates a remarkable display when given the dry, open conditions it prefers. The striking blooms can also be used as cut flowers. Plants are naturally adapted to harsh environments and perform best in full sun, alkaline to neutral soil and exceptionally good drainage.

Although perennial in its natural habitat, Sturt’s Desert Pea can be challenging to maintain in wetter climates and is often treated as a short-lived perennial or annual in cultivation. Avoid overwatering, particularly once plants are established.

Approximately 30 seeds per packet

When to Plant (Australia)

Tropics: Generally unsuitable for humid tropical conditions
Subtropics: Spring to summer in very well-drained conditions
Mild climates: Spring to summer
Cold climates: Spring after frost

Planting / Sowing

Seed has a hard outer coat and requires scarification to assist germination. Place seed in hot to boiling water for approximately 5–10 minutes, then rinse in cool water and sow immediately into a sandy, very free-draining growing mix.

Cover lightly and keep just moist during germination. In cool weather, covering the container for approximately five days can help maintain suitable conditions. Do not overwater, as seedlings and established plants are particularly susceptible to excessive moisture and poor drainage.

Choose a permanent position in full sun with excellent drainage and plenty of room for the trailing stems to spread.

Trifolium subterraneum

Sub Clover is a productive cool-season annual legume widely used for pasture, green manure, ground cover and soil improvement. It grows actively through winter and spring, naturally dying back as conditions become hot and dry before regenerating from seed with autumn rains.

Well suited to neutral soils, Sub Clover develops a strong root system and provides excellent ground coverage. As a legume, it forms a symbiotic relationship with beneficial soil bacteria, fixing atmospheric nitrogen through its root nodules and helping build fertility for following crops or companion pasture species.

Its ability to self-seed and regenerate makes it particularly useful as a longer-term living ground cover in orchards, pastures and other areas where seasonal winter and spring growth is desirable.

Approximately 580 seeds per packet
Sowing rate: approximately 6–10 kg/ha

When to Plant (Australia)

Tropics: Generally better suited to cooler regions
Subtropics: Autumn to winter
Mild climates: Autumn to winter
Cold climates: Autumn, winter or spring

Planting / Sowing

Broadcast evenly over prepared soil and lightly rake or press seed into the surface. Keep moist during germination and establishment.

For green manure, cut at or around flowering and leave the foliage on the surface as mulch or lightly incorporate into the soil. If growing as a self-regenerating ground cover, allow plants to flower and set seed before summer dieback.

For maximum nitrogen fixation, treat seed with the appropriate Clover inoculant where compatible rhizobia are not already established in the soil.

Not available for TAS. Due to quarantine restrictions, WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.

Satureja hortensis

Summer Savory is a fragrant annual herb growing to around 45 cm, producing slender stems covered with aromatic green leaves and small white to pale lilac flowers that attract bees and other beneficial insects. The leaves have a warm, peppery flavour and are widely used fresh or dried to season beans, soups, stuffing, vegetables, meats and salads. A traditional kitchen herb, Summer Savory pairs particularly well with legumes, earning it the nickname "the bean herb."

In traditional Western herbalism, Summer Savory has been used as an aromatic digestive herb. The leaves have traditionally been infused as a tea to support digestion and help relieve occasional digestive discomfort after meals.

Approximately 1,200–1,500 seeds per gram
