In this kit, you’ll discover:
1. Wattleseed
These earthy, nutty gems, with a hint of chocolate and coffee, add depth and complexity to soups, stews, and baked goods. Imagine a hearty stew infused with the subtle sweetness of the Australian bush!

2. Native Thyme (Prostanthera ovalifolia)
This fragrant herb boasts a peppery, citrusy aroma with a touch of eucalyptus. It elevates roasted vegetables, marinades, and adds a unique zing to pizza and pasta dishes.

3. Saltbush variety
This protein-packed plant carries a salty flavour with earthy undertones. Use it fresh in salads or cooking by sprinkling it over grilled meats and fish, or infuse it into olive oil for a burst of flavour in your dishes.

4. Native Basil (Plectranthus graveolens)
Move over, Genovese! This delightful herb boasts a sweet basil flavour with mild hints of anise and citrus. Add it to salads and sauces, or use it to create a refreshing pesto with a uniquely Australian twist. Imagine the vibrant green leaves adding a touch of magic to your plate!

5. Native Mint (Mentha australis)
Not your average mint! This variety offers a refreshing, slightly peppery flavour with a hint of citrus. Enjoy it in herbal teas, infused water, or add a touch of coolness to summer salads and desserts. Let the taste of the Australian wilderness invigorate your senses!

6. Kunzea (Kunzea ambigua) 
This aromatic native plant offers a delicate, floral-minty flavour with subtle eucalyptus notes. Use its leaves fresh or dried to infuse teas, syrups, and marinades, or blend it into honey for a soothing, immune-boosting remedy.

Please note: the plants listed above are a sample of what you might receive. Because we work with living stock, availability and seasonality mean the exact mix may vary — but you can always count on the same quality and care in every plant we send. If a plant is unavailable, we’ll use our discretion to replace it with another quality native spice or herb, and we’ll always make contact with you first to let you know about the change. If you’re after a specific set of plants, we recommend purchasing them individually so you know exactly what you’re getting.

Growing Conditions

Each plant thrives in a high-organic soil mix in a part-sun position, with minimal water requirements once established. Check out each plant’s own page on our website to learn more.
