Big thank you to Alison Tindale at Backyard Larder for some great plants, profiles and photos, to Martin Crawford for writing Creating a Forest Garden, to Mandy Barber at Incredible Vegetables for the inspiration, and to Stephen Barstow for his unrelenting exploration of all things edimental.

5. Good King Henry

6. Perennial Kale

7. Perennial Leek

8. Siberian Purslane
