Traditional Japanese Herbs and Vegetables for Home Growing

Our range of Japanese vegetable plants and culinary herbs includes varieties commonly used in Japanese cooking, offering fresh ingredients that are often difficult to find in shops. These plants are suitable for UK gardens, raised beds, greenhouses, and containers, making them ideal for both experienced growers and beginners interested in growing Asian vegetables.

  • Shiso Plants – Also known as Japanese perilla, shiso is a fragrant herb widely used in Japanese cooking. Its distinctive leaves have a refreshing flavour with hints of mint, basil, and citrus, making them perfect for sushi, salads, garnishes, and pickles.
  • Myoga Ginger Plants – A unique Japanese ginger grown for its edible flower buds rather than its roots. Myoga has a mild, aromatic ginger flavour and is traditionally used fresh in soups, noodles, and salads.
  • Red Hokkaido Pumpkin – A sweet, nutty winter squash known for its rich flavour and smooth texture. This versatile Japanese pumpkin is ideal for soups, roasting, and traditional Japanese dishes.
  • Green Kabocha Squash – Often called Japanese pumpkin, kabocha produces dense, sweet flesh with a chestnut-like flavour. It’s highly valued in Japanese cooking for tempura, stews, and roasted dishes.
  • Sansho Pepper Tree – A traditional Japanese spice tree producing aromatic peppercorns and fragrant leaves used in dishes such as grilled eel and noodle soups. The peppercorns have a distinctive citrusy, tingling flavour.
  • Szechuan Pepper Tree – Known for its unique peppercorns that create a numbing, citrusy spice, this small tree produces clusters of aromatic berries widely used in Asian cuisine.

Many of these Japanese herbs and vegetable plants can be grown successfully in containers, raised beds, or vegetable gardens, making them suitable for both small urban spaces and larger plots. With the right care, they produce fresh, flavourful ingredients for your home cooking.

Whether you’re passionate about Japanese cooking, Asian herbs, or unusual vegetables, our collection offers a unique opportunity to grow authentic ingredients rarely found in typical vegetable gardens.

Explore the range of Japanese herb and vegetable plants and enjoy the satisfaction of harvesting fresh, traditional flavours directly from your own garden.
