For over 15 years The Italian Gardener has sold vegetable and herb seed from FRANCHI Sementi SPA, one of the largest seed producers in Italy, a family owned business since 1783. Italians are very particular about their vegetables. For more than 230 years, FRANCHI have won the support of gardeners in Italy and around the world by offering a range of heirloom varieties, selected for their taste rather than “supermarket” characteristics of transportability, long storage and uniformity. Franchi vegetables deliver on quality and flavour.
'Magnum' a line of larger seed packets have been introduced for some seed varieties and are excellent value for small-scale growers. These packets contain about three times the amount of seed for twice the cost of normal packets. Bulk varieties are available in certain lines. Please email me on [email protected] and I will see what I can do.
Maggie Beer - "Not only do they have all the specialist herbs and vegetables I've come home hankering for after trips to Italy, but when I plant their seeds in my garden in the Barossa Valley, the result is exactly what I remember seeing in markets in Tuscany."
