Garden Orach might sound like a common weed at first, but it is a big favorite of ours. This low-maintenance plant can grow up to two meters tall in the flowerbed, so it reliably fills empty spaces and adds beautiful volume to your plantings. Plus, it likes to reseed itself in the garden without you having to worry about it taking over the entire area. Growing is easy and you can handle it playfully via direct sowing right into the soil. During the summer, you can use orach in fresh bouquets, where it perfectly complements other flowers with its leaves and texture. But the main event comes at the end of the season, when colorful seed pods ripen on the branches. At this moment, orach is perfect for drying. Just bundle it up and hang it upside down in a dry, ventilated place away from direct sunlight. You will get great material for winter decorations.
