Edible Flowers
Flowers are so much more than pretty ornamentals for your garden. Many flowers and flowering vegetables produce petals that can be added to sweet and savoury dishes for an extra kick of colour and flavour.
Here you will find a selection of edible flowers that can be used for decoration and consumption on cakes, in salads, drinks and more. Buy directly from our UK nursery as seeds or in-season plants.
Historically, edible flowers have been used for centuries in all manner of sweet and savoury dishes. And as the popularity of home-grown fruit, flowers and vegetables has enjoyed something of a renaissance, so too has the use of edible flowers in cooking and baking.
Our edible flowers category includes a variety of traditional ornamental flowers, flowering herbs and flowering vegetables that can be used in an abundance of sweet or savoury dishes. More than just pretty garnishes (although edible flowers work extremely well in this regard!), these edible flowers actually add a new dimension of flavour to cakes, bakes, salads, breads, teas and more. Edible flowers can also be mixed in with cocktails and refreshing summer drinks to add an exotic twist and zesty colour. We guarantee that once you've given them a go, you'll never look back!
All seeds and plants are delivered directly from our nursery in Kent, UK. Although we try to provide product descriptions that are as comprehensive as possible - including cooking and baking tips - if you've got a burning question regarding your edible flower order, please feel free to call or email our friendly team and we'll get back to you as soon as possible!
And whilst our flower, fruit and vegetable seeds are typically available throughout the year, many of our live plants are supplied in season, so that you receive the freshest, most viable produce possible.
