MITSUBA (CRYPTOTAENIA JAPONICA)

1 well-established plant in a 1liter pot, sent in plastic-free packaging. A delicate, shade-loving perennial herb prized for its fresh aromatic flavour, combining notes of parsley, celery, and coriander. Widely used in Japanese cuisine, it produces tender foliage over a long season and thrives in cool, moist conditions.

Perennial | Height 60–100cm | Partial shade to shade | Edible leaves and stems | Fresh culinary herb

Mitsuba is a beautiful shade-loving perennial herb widely used in Japanese cuisine for its fresh, aromatic flavour that combines hints of parsley, celery, and coriander. Its elegant green foliage brings softness and texture to the garden while producing regular harvests from spring through to autumn.

Young leaves and stems are delicious added fresh to soups, noodles, salads, rice dishes, and stir-fries, where their delicate flavour shines best. Unlike many culinary herbs, Mitsuba thrives in cooler, shadier spots, making it ideal for forest gardens, sheltered beds, or container growing.

Easy to grow and wonderfully productive once established, Mitsuba is an excellent choice for gardeners wanting to explore unique perennial herbs while making use of difficult shaded spaces.

    Came well established and very happy

  2. Caroline (verified owner)

    Like everything in my order, beautifully packed in easily recyclable/biodegradable packaging – the best condition I have ever received plants in. Paper tape to prevent soil escaping from pots, every pot taped to the side of the main box with paper tape and a stick so that even if it got turned upside down the plants remained in place and uncrushed. All the plants were healthy, fresh and so generously sized as to be in need of repotting very soon.

FAQs

We hope our FAQ’s help, but if you need any further information please don’t hesitate to get in touch!

We can only send orders to other parts of mainland GB due to strict regulations for the sending of plant materials and sadly we do not have the capacity to fill in phytosanitary certificates.

As we are a small business we currently have one packing day a week, and so expect your delivery within 2 weeks from ordering your plants.

At this moment in time we are not open for visits to the nursery, however if you come on a volunteer day or in-person course with Huw or Sam at Dan Yr Onnen you can of course then see the nursery and purchase plants in person.

Because working with plants can be an unpredictable business, for simplicity we do not offer pre-orders on all products however we may occasuinally open certain orders for pre orders and these will be clearly marked. The best time to know that we have restocked is to join our mailing list followed by looking out for updates on our Instagram.

We have decided to focus on growing plants 100% naturally without the limitations of going with organic certification. No artificial pesticides, fungicides, or anyother-icides are used on site.
