Edibles contained - Kitchen Garden Magazine

One of the most ornamental displays in the Floral Marquee at Gardening Scotland was entirely edible.

Brighter Blooms is based outside Preston and its main speciality is calla lilies – but for its Scottish outing the nursery chose to showcase its other speciality, baby leaf salads. Its picture-perfect planters contained everything from coriander to kale, closely sown for cutting at salad size.
