Land Cress
Add something fresh and new to your meals with Land Cress seeds from Mr Fothergill’s. A bold alternative to watercress, Land Cress gives a peppery kick with every bite: its fresh, zesty flavour spices up salads and sandwiches and brightens up meals as a garnish. This hardy variety does best in subtropical climates, with its impressive heat tolerance, resistance to leaf blight, and stocky roots (up to 18cm long, 6cm diameter). Plus, Land Cress is an excellent choice for beginner gardeners looking to grow something delicious because it’s low-maintenance too.
Pair Land Cress with our Asian greens seeds for fresh and peppery flavours, or mix things up with our herb seeds. Or, for a more complete selection, take a look at the rest of our vegetable seeds and value seeds.
How To Grow
Sow your Land Cress seeds directly where you want them to grow, 5mm (¼”) deep, into prepared soil that has been well-watered. Keep the soil moist as they germinate and grow. Land Cress prefers shady positions, making it ideal for growing underneath tall crops such as sweet corn, climbing beans, or broccoli. Your seedlings should appear in 7-14 days.
