I enjoy a quick foray into the National Plant Societies Marquee as there are always a wealth of unusual things on offer that aren't available from the large nurseries. This year the displays put on by all the plant societies of the North West are especially good, with a wide range of plants available, everything from Br ugmansia, Agapanthus and succulents to carnivorous Sarracenia.
Where some shows have a small table devoted to each one, at Tatton they do things differently, grouping all the plants together to make displays of mixed plant types from all the different exhibitors. The effect is a great display which really relates to everyday gardens, and shows that anyone can be a national collection holder and still have an interesting and varied garden.
For me the best part of the marquee was the stall, manned by groups from across the north of England and featured a wonderful mixture of different perennials, vegetables and houseplants all grown by the members themselves. Each plant was lovingly grown and labelled, and sold with the helpful advice of the person that propagated it. The effect was like a giant garden fete and certainly offered something for everyone. I was in my element buying far too many plants. Oh well at least I'll be able to take some cuttings and bring some plants back for them to sell next year.
A small herbal farm in Cambodia to supply ample need of delicious and healthy herbal spices for seasoning of Khmer food.
Cambodia is one of the fewer Asian countries using abundance of fresh grown herbal spices in their traditional food along with fresh vegetables. Rather few dried spices are used in Khmer kitchen. Fresh daily harvested herbs are more powerful in their healing nature and far more tasty than dried spices.
A rich use of herbal spices in daily food strengthens the immune system, provides additional vitamins and minerals and makes the food tasty and delicious for all.
In every good kitchen there should be at least several dozen of herbs and spices in use. All the herbs you can grow locally in your own garden always should be produced locally rather than dried or imported.
