Ready to plant

Salicornia fruticosa is a variety of Salicornia europaea, also known as sea asparagus. It is an edible annual plant that grows wild along coastlines. Its appearance resembles that of seaweed, and its flavor is also strongly marine: the stems, harvested between May and June, taste very salty when eaten raw and are therefore often used as a salt substitute to season fish or salad. Rich in minerals and low in calories, you could try many sea asparagus recipes!

Between July and August it produces small and inconspicuous yellow flowers; however, Salicornia is grown mainly for its edible fleshy stems.

An edible annual plant that grows wild along the coast: it loves full sun and is naturally very resistant to salt spray. The fleshy stems, with their marine and salty flavor, are harvested between May and June.

WHAT MAKES OUR PLANTS DIFFERENT

Long anti-spiraling vases

A traditional lawn is a fragile monoculture: it drinks thousands of liters of water every summer, needs mowing every week, and turns yellow as soon as you neglect it. An alternative lawn turns this logic on its head: instead of grasses, we use Mediterranean groundcovers selected in our nursery—low, dense, and hardy plants, born for hot and dry climates.

The result is a green, walkable carpet that blooms for months, withstands drought, salt spray, and frost, and reduces watering and maintenance by 80%. It is not an aesthetic compromise: it is a more beautiful, more vibrant lawn that is more honest with the environment.
