our recommendation
KRONLY Wichtel gift Christmas tree growing set Christmas tree - Santa Claus gift funny gift idea Advent calendar filling - Julklapp gift Stocking fillers Merry Christmas
12.95 EUR To the product

Not only a good gift idea for Christmas: This Christmas tree comes in the form of a seed and can be decorated and used as such in 7 to 8 years with good care. A beautiful gift that grows and thrives.

Who is this gift for?

This Nordmann fir can be grown both in a pot and in the garden, so there must be at least one sunny balcony or terrace. A little gardening skill can't hurt either, although the manufacturer has put five seeds in the packet for less talented gardeners. If it doesn't work the first time, then maybe the second or third… It's nice to sow the tree together with children, who will be amazed at how it grows and flourishes.

our recommendation
Old historical vegetable assortment - seed gift set with 8 rare seed rarities
24.95 EUR To the product

If you not only want to grow something special, but also want to revive old vegetable varieties, this seed set is the right one for you! It includes:

  • Chervil beet (Chaerophyllum bulbosum): These small beets combine the taste of several bulbs: gourmets can discover potatoes, celery, parsnips and even chestnuts here.
  • Purple carrot 'Black Spanish' (Daucus carota): This carrot variety is probably the oldest known carrot at the moment.

The purple carrot impresses with its strong color and beautiful white flowers

  • Beetroot 'Crapaudine' (Beta vulgaris): This gourmet variety is at least 300 years old. The turnips are rather elongated.
  • Garden orache (Atriplex hortensis): This pretty leafy vegetable was once used to treat lung diseases or to boost metabolism. The leaves can be cooked or eaten raw.
  • Good Henry (Chenopodium bonus-henricus): This flavorful leafy green makes a great addition to salads or as a cooked side dish
  • Broad beans (Vicia faba): These broad beans are not that fat. The original form of the broad bean is just as protein-rich as the new breeds - and at least as tasty!
  • Sweet Pea 'Early Heinrich' (Pisum sativum): The only variety of pea that can be eaten raw!
  • Sea kale (Crambe maritima): The leaves of this broccoli-like tasting cabbage can be harvested gradually over a period of time. Cultivation requires some gardening skill.

This gift is also ideal as a Christmas present or as a gift in winter or spring.
