Recipes for salad burnet

Chef's specials

Salad Burnet tastes great mixed with Greek yoghurt for a tzatziki. Crushed with a mortar and pestle and some lemon peel, it will also taste well when added to fresh water.

It will grow!

Guaranteed

Your indoor garden supplies all ingredients for a beautiful harvest: water, light and nutrients. In the case of a pod that doesn't sprout (which can happen as we work with natural materials), we will send you a new pod free of charge. Take a look at our FAQ.

Natural

Our seeds are organic

Agriculture Biologique Produit en France

The seeds come from special selected seed companies in France. The aromatic seeds are organic and grow in peat and coconut fiber. Our pods are made out of bioplastic and are biodegradable: when your plants grow tired you can repot them or compost them.

Système hydroponique

The pod

An innovative hydroponic system.

Thanks to our patented Float® design, you only have one thing to do: add water once every two or three weeks when the floater sinks. The plant takes all mineral salts it needs out of the water (these are released into the water over the weeks). Discover the Prêt à Pousser technology.

Questions /Answers

    • The leaves of my Salad Burnet have no smell whatsoever, do I need to be worried?

      Yes, that's normal. The leaves of your Salad Burnet don't have a strong smell. Try to delicately rub them between your fingers, this will release the smell.

    • What can I do with Salad Burnet?

      Use your Salad Burnet fresh! You can't really keep it fresh long and cooked is not the best option, either. The best would be in a salad or other cold dish.

    • I'd like to repot my Salad Burnet, can I?

      Yes, you can repot it, but make sure she won't suffer from culture shock: repot your plant but leave it under the same conditions (enough water, good lighting and a nice temperature).
