Description

I am hugely excited about this - Samphire you can grow in a pot. Just germinate and water with a little salt. Will self-sow.

Please note, illustrated packets are being introduced gradually over the coming months, availability may vary.

Care Tips

Prefers a moist, light, sandy soil in full sun. Requires saline conditions to do well so these are best grown in coastal locations or in a container that can replicate these conditions
