Angelica polymorpha var. sinensis
Dong Quai, also known as Chinese Angelica, is a traditional medicinal herb native to Eastern Asia and one of the most highly regarded herbs in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Often considered alongside Ginseng and Liquorice as one of the foundational tonic herbs, Dong Quai has been used for centuries, particularly to support women's health. It forms a graceful clump of divided green foliage topped with airy clusters of creamy white flowers in its second year, making it an attractive addition to both medicinal and ornamental gardens.
Traditionally, Dong Quai has been used to support healthy menstrual function and circulation and has also been valued as a cardiovascular tonic. While widely respected in traditional herbal medicine, it should only be used under the guidance of a suitably qualified healthcare practitioner.

When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: April to July
Subtropics: March to August
Mild climates: March to September

Planting / Sowing
Sow seed on the surface or cover very lightly with fine seed-raising mix, as light assists germination. Fresh seed generally germinates best, and a period of cold stratification may improve germination if sowing older seed. Grow in fertile, moisture-retentive, well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade. Space plants 60–90 cm apart and keep the soil consistently moist. Dong Quai is a biennial, with roots typically harvested in the second or third year.

Dracocephalum moldavica
Dragonhead, also known as Moldavian Balm, is a charming annual herb native to parts of Asia and Eastern Europe. It produces spikes of striking blue, nectar-rich flowers above aromatic green foliage, releasing a refreshing citrus fragrance when brushed. Traditionally enjoyed as a fragrant herbal tea and used in traditional herbal medicine, Dragonhead also makes an attractive ornamental plant that brings colour and scent to the garden.
Highly valued by beekeepers and gardeners alike, Dragonhead is an exceptional pollinator plant, attracting honeybees, native bees and a wide range of beneficial insects, including Australia's beautiful blue-banded bees. Its long flowering period makes it a valuable addition to cottage gardens, herb gardens and wildlife-friendly landscapes.

Pisum sativum
Dun Pea is a hardy, cool-season field pea grown primarily as a green manure and cover crop, producing good biomass while helping protect and improve the soil. As a legume, it works with beneficial soil bacteria to fix atmospheric nitrogen, making it particularly useful in crop rotations and for building fertility ahead of spring and summer plantings.
It can also be grown as a forage crop for late-winter grazing. Sow through autumn and winter for strong cool-season growth.
Sowing rate: approximately 30–40 kg/ha
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: Autumn to winter
Subtropics: Autumn to winter
Mild climates: Autumn to winter
Cold climates: Autumn to early spring
Planting / Sowing
Sow directly into prepared soil approximately 2–5 cm deep. For green manure, cut before seed matures and leave the growth on the soil as mulch or incorporate it into the soil before the following crop.
For maximum nitrogen fixation, treat seed with the appropriate pea 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.
Echinacea angustifolia
A hardy North American prairie perennial valued for its long history of traditional herbal use and attractive summer flowers. Plants form narrow, upright grey-green leaves and produce soft rose-pink, cone-shaped blooms that attract bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects. Slower growing than Echinacea purpurea, Echinacea angustifolia is often regarded as the more potent medicinal species and is particularly prized for its roots.
Plants thrive in full sun and very well-drained soils, preferring the drier conditions of their native prairie habitat. Cold stratification greatly improves germination, making this species well worth the extra preparation for gardeners interested in growing their own medicinal herbs.
Traditionally, the roots have been used to support healthy immune function and are generally harvested after two to three years, once they have fully developed. The leaves and flowers may also be used in teas and tinctures, although the roots remain the most valued medicinal part. While Echinacea has a long history of traditional use, modern clinical studies suggest it may help reduce the duration of some upper respiratory tract infections, although results vary depending on the preparation used.

Planting / Sowing
For best germination, refrigerate seed at approximately 5°C for 2–4 weeks before sowing. Surface sow or cover lightly with no more than 2–3 mm of fine seed-raising mix, as light assists germination. Keep the soil evenly moist but never waterlogged, with temperatures between 18–22°C. Transplant seedlings into a sunny, well-drained position, spacing plants 30–45 cm apart. Avoid heavy, poorly drained soils, particularly over winter.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.
Echinacea purpurea
Purple Coneflower is a hardy perennial native to North America and one of the world's most widely cultivated medicinal herbs. A member of the daisy family (Asteraceae), it produces striking purple, cone-shaped flowers throughout summer that are highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. Equally at home in ornamental borders or medicinal herb gardens, it thrives in full sun or partial shade and is drought tolerant once established.
Echinacea has been extensively studied for its ability to support healthy immune function and possesses well-documented anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Traditionally, it is used to support the body during colds, coughs and other upper respiratory infections. The leaves, flowers and roots can all be used to prepare teas and tinctures, with roots from plants at least two years old generally regarded as the most potent medicinally.

Planting / Sowing
Sow seed on the surface or cover lightly with 2–3 mm of fine seed-raising mix, as light assists germination. A period of cold stratification at around 5°C for 7 days may improve germination, although it is generally less important than for Echinacea angustifolia. Grow in full sun or partial shade in well-drained soil, spacing plants 40–50 cm apart. Harvest leaves and flowers as required, with roots best harvested after at least two years of growth.

Leontopodium alpinum
Edelweiss is an iconic alpine perennial native to the limestone mountains of Europe, where its distinctive woolly white, star-shaped flowers have become a symbol of endurance and natural beauty. Forming compact clumps of silvery foliage, it thrives in rocky, well-drained soils and is perfectly suited to rockeries, alpine gardens and containers. Its soft, velvety blooms make excellent fresh or dried flowers and are highly valued for their unique appearance.
Traditionally known in Germany as the "stomach plant", Edelweiss has a long history of use in European herbal medicine, where it was commonly prepared as an infusion with hot milk and honey to support digestive health. Modern research has identified antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds within the plant, contributing to its continued interest as a medicinal herb.

Glebionis coronaria
Formerly Chrysanthemum coronarium
Edible Chrysanthemum, also known as Shungiku or Chop Suey Greens, is a fast-growing leafy vegetable prized throughout East Asia for its distinctive aromatic flavour and versatility in the kitchen. This hardy annual grows to approximately 1 metre tall, producing deeply cut green leaves and cheerful yellow daisy-like flowers.
The young leaves have a unique savoury flavour often described as a blend of chrysanthemum, celery and mild herbs, making them a popular addition to soups, stir-fries, hot pots and salads. For the most tender harvest, plants are typically cut when they reach 100–200 mm tall, encouraging fresh regrowth and multiple pickings. The colourful flower petals can be scattered through salads or infused into a light, refreshing herbal tea.
Quick to mature and easy to grow, Shungiku is an excellent choice for gardeners seeking a productive leafy green that offers something a little different from traditional salad vegetables.
