Thompson and Morgan Rocket Herb Seeds

Enjoy a fresh burst of flavour in your kitchen with Thompson and Morgan Rocket Herb Seeds that offer a deliciously peppery leaf for salads, sandwiches or as a cooked alternative to spinach. You'll find sowing from mid-spring to late summer ensures a generous harvest, especially when protected from frosts, and the hardy annual plants thrive in sun or semi-shade, reaching up to 15cm in height and spread. Each packet contains 500 seeds, making it perfect for anyone keen on home growing, from beginners to seasoned gardeners. Sow seeds from April to July in any good, fertile, well-drained soil. Sow seeds thinly six millimetres deep in drills spaced 45-60cm apart. When the seedlings are large enough to handle, thin them out to 23-30cm apart. Pick the young leaves as required over the whole row rather than just one or two plants, as this would weaken them. As the flower buds appear, pinch them out to prolong cropping. Product Specifications: Hardy Annual. Position in: Sun or semi-shade. Height: Up to 15cm. Spread: Up to 15cm. Images shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity. Different growing conditions might vary the results. Images may be included to illustrate supply, but can vary due to seasonal changes (e.g., deciduous plants lose leaves in colder months).
