Calathea

Medium

Calathea's ornamental leaves — with their stunning patterns in green, silver, and purple — are among the most spectacular in the entire houseplant world. A living work of art for those willing to provide proper care.

Moderate to low indirect light Every 1–2 weeks

Carrot

Daucus carota subsp. sativus

Easy

The carrot is a classic root vegetable that is as easy to grow as it is nutritious to eat. Rich in beta-carotene and sweet in flavour — home-grown carrots are dramatically tastier than shop-bought. Suitable for pots, boxes and raised beds.

Full sun to partial shade Regularly, deep watering

Cherry Tomato

Solanum lycopersicum var. cerasiforme

Medium

The cherry tomato is one of the most popular tomato varieties — delicious, sweet, and highly productive. It is perfect for growing in a pot on a balcony or indoors on a sunny windowsill.

Full sun Regularly, keep soil evenly moist
