About half of my allotment garden is dedicated to temperate climate perennial edibles -- vegetables, fruit, berries, and herbs that I've planted once, and can rely on for harvests every year. In this video, I show you some of the ones I grow, and a few others at the allotment. I also share some of their benefits and how I grow them in the garden and containers. There's even a perennial that many people know as a common annual crop!
If you're new to edible perennial gardening, think of it this way. Instead of sowing seeds every spring, perennials regrow each year, providing an easy, and often very early crop. Perennial edibles are also low-maintenance, long-lived, and save both time and money in the productive vegetable garden.
🌿 Question for you: Do you have any perennial edibles in your garden? Any ones that are very unique? We'd love to hear about them!

Nice video - thanks for sharing. Did you mention Rhubarb? Lavendar granita is so easy to make but tastes sooo good. I've got 4 specied of perenial leeks in the garden - including the annual leeks I perenialised. There's also 4 types of chives, 3 types of onion, perennial loose leaf cabbage, 2 types perennial kale, 2 types rhubarb, hostas (never got round to eating them though), sorrel, cardoon, Jerusalem artichokes (start off the season with only a little gradually building it up helps the gut acclimatize - also try using with savory), good king henry, rocket, skirret, scorzonera, sweet cicely, fennel, scots lovage, wild garlic, elephant garlic, oerprei, Globe Artichoke, Cardoons, caucasian spinach. Plus mashua, earth chest nut, oca, american groundnut. Then theres the fruit - red currants, black currants, goose berries, raspberries, straw berries, honey berries, blue berries, 3 x grapes, choke berries, himalayan honeysuckle, dwarf mulberry, medlar, quincem goji berry, June berry. Wow, listing it looks alot. Then there's the kiwi fruit, rosemary, marjoram, sage, bergamont, japanese spinach, fig trees, logan berry, cranberry, comfrey.

Sunchokes are something that most people can't eat, because they never eat them. You don't have the gut flora to digest them properly. Once you start eating them, you will actually adjust over time and be able to eat them regularly with no problems. But it can take a couple months.

Re: jerusalem artichokes - preparation is key to managing the gas issue. Slow cooking and pickling both work. As to it taking over, as with pretty much all plants, it depends. I've tried them in two different locations, hundreds of miles apart, and had them disappear entirely in no more than three years.

have a great result with super size plants and huge potatoes. I use a 4ft by 8 ft mesh sided compost area. Each year I move to a new spot. I did build an 8ft trellis for beans, but as I had lots i just put the potatoes in. The plants got strung to it as reached 7ft tall. Once dug up I had 1 potatoe at 1.2kg and many at 0.5kg. This proved effective now for the 3rd year. I thing the ground gets so full of of energy the plants go nuts.

Thank you for sharing! Perennials and permaculture gardening is so helpful and important! Right now I'm in an apartment, so my perennials have been Herbs like yarrow, then I have lots of annuals. With my land I plan to have mostly permaculture, and an orchard, with perennials, then my annual garden closer to the house. I have videos of my crazy covered apartment patio. It's been fun to get creative, but I'm ready for property! 💚💚💚 Perennials are also so much better for the environment, especially large scale, because they sequester more carbon in the soil, and don't require tilling. When soil is rolled, like large scale annual agriculture, extremely large amounts of carbon are released. You can even see images showing all the carbon being released in fields of the Midwest US during early spring tilling season, and then again when all the animals die off before winter.

Some other good ones which are easy to grow are elderberries, lemonbalm, wild leeks, mint, strawberries (not exactly perennials but they will self-replant fairly easily), rhubarb, fennel, wild garlic. Also if you have a patch of nettles don't get rid of them, they are a very nutritious perennial food source, as good as spinach.

Oca tuber formation is triggered by day length. Part of why it's difficult to grow further north. When our days are the right length to trigger tuber growth, there's not enough time left before killing frosts. I'm considering planting them where I can put a blackout cover over them to artificially shorten the days ;)

I'm trying many perennials (veg and fruit) Ive had success with oca (new zealand yams) and artichokes (both kinds) but failed so far with asparagus and mixed success with 9 star broccoli. Some others im trying not seen in your video are skirret, turkish rocket, Hablitzia tamnoides (a climbing spinach) various hardy mini kiwis and sea buckthorns. I have a long forest garden Around 60 ft long by 14 ft wide running approx West/East, some sun some shade but can be exposed to high winds. I also have a 10 year old Mulberry (Illinois Everbearing) which regularly crops heavily. I have around 6 varieties of blueberry and some tea plants getting established and growing slowly. Trying lots of annuals and other plants. I grew scarlet runner var. Painted Lady last year. Used green runners and retained some seeds to eat and to plant this year. How do you perennialise and how many years survival ? I also grow a black podded/seeded runner probably "black magic" which does well here. Still got room for more things in future! Love your posts, only just discovered you. Isle of Man not too far from North Wales so similar climate. M☺

Portulaca oleracea (common purslane, also known as little hogweed, or pursley) might be an idea. Peppers can be perennials if you cut the stem in the shape of a Y (just before frost) and store them over winter in pots. The Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus), also called sunroot, sunchoke, wild sunflower, topinambur, or earth apple. Common chicory (Cichorium intybus) Nasturtium - commonly known as watercress or yellowcress Allium ursinum, known as wild garlic, ramsons, cowleekes, cows's leek, cowleek, buckrams, broad-leaved garlic, wood garlic, bear leek, Eurasian wild garlic or bear's garlic Malva or mallow.

I knew that Man and most of Scotland is Zones 8 & 9. I live in Minnesota, USA. It is Zone 4. Some of the plants that you are growing are perennial here, too: asparagus, rhubarb, cardoon, and Jerusalem artichokes. Burdock is a "weed," but I eat it anyway. Many states won't allow any type of currants to be grown, because it is a vector for white pine rust, which will kill the trees, and white pine grows in many areas here. I have to grow rosemary in a pot and bring it indoors when it gets cold. P.S. Sunchokes are a GREAT prebiotic for the beneficial bacteria in your gut biome. If you eat too much of them, your beneficial bacteria will 🎉🥳🥳 party, to the detriment of your comfort. The advice I saw said to introduce it *very" cautiously.

I always grow yacons. They're so easy. Each plant produces lots of tubers, the parts you eat and numerous rhizomes, the parts you replant for next year's harvest. I leave them in the ground over winter and harvest them during the "hungry gap", March through to early May. I peel them and use them like a cucumber, which won't be ready for months.

Of course, in the USA, Zone 8+ (except for the West Coast, which has a mild Maritime or Mediterranean climate like Western Europe), it gets too hot for most runner beans to set fruit. I did see a landrace grown in Manchuria (hot in the brief summer), so perhaps there are some sorts that will work, but Phaseolus coccineas comes from altitude and doesn't generally like Continental or subtropical heat. You forgot another factor: a true perennial must also survive (actively growing or in dormancy) *summer*.

Nice garden, wish I could grow some of those but I'm in a zone 4 unfortunately. Some I will add to your list for cold climate growers, they are Ostrich Ferns for the fiddle heads in early spring, dandelion patch for mid spring and a row of spruce trees for the spruce tips in late spring are just a few of my favorites to get me out of the winter and into veggie season. There are a few others throughout the year that I love but I look forward to these in spring along with all my veggie starters growing in the sunroom to get me out of my winter blues.

Thank you for your very informative video. Are u familiar with SouthWestern Oregon? Im brand new in growing and feel like there's SO MANY DIFFERENT suggestions or information out here. So much so that I'm overwhelmed and confused. I started basil, successfully and chives. Peppermint and lavender also I hv been successful. But, green pepper and cucumbers hv not been successful at all! Tomatoes are easy here but I hv arthritis and am not supposed to eat them, sadly. I just wish I had clear instructions for what, when, how and where and what all is perennial and what is not. My husband built me a greenhouse. Naive and ignorantly... We were an educated into how cold that big greenhouse would actually get and we had no way of heating it it's attached to our barn which we just moved to this property little less than a year ago. And now it gets so warm in the daytime and cold in the night time I don't know how to protect or have airflow For all of the life in there. I tried container growing with a lot of things and here it gets over a 100- 105 and also it can be freezing in the Winter. I need a gardening coach or at least a starting point with some information on how to keep it growing harvesting and I think last year I did too much and didn't realise that I couldn't keep up with the harvest a lot of my success full vegetation ended up dying because I couldn't attend to all of it. I know I'm all over the place in gave you my whole history however I am desperate. So any help is appreciated thank you again for your video in hopefully one day can make you and all the other green summers proud cause right now I have a white 1 or black lol

Wow! I had not considered the possibility that USDA (US) growing zone numbers do not apply outside the US. Thus, I wonder if anyone has developed growing zones that apply worldwide. Meanwhile, I do like the concept of perennial vegetable gardens. Thanks for the video.

So many people think annuals. "Crop rotation! Omg, this bed had a virus so I can't plant any of X family in it for X years! It dies around X month!" Me as a predominantly perennial gardener: "It's getting bigger, should only be a bigger harvest this year with less work than the year before."

We always grow horseradish in a container, as a perennial, overwintering it in our greenhouse. Growing it in a container makes a lot of sense because, like mint or comfrey, it is highly invasive.

If sunchokes cause you gastric difficulties, try lightly fermenting them in brine. It seems to break down whatever causes the digestive problem.

I'm so jealous of those thornless blackberries! I love all the perennial ideas, thank you so much for sharing, very helpful as we plan our massive garden. One quick question for you Tanya, when you propagate your lavender in the autumn, or anything else, what do you do with it over winter to keep it protected? I'm in a much more extreme climate (zone 5b) and I was thinking if our garage but I'm afraid it won't be warm enough?
@CuriousinNY
@CuriousinNY 4 жыл бұрын
I am also in zone 5. I have grown lavender in the ground. If you are worried try it both ways and once you are satisfied you can then plant the potted lavender into the ground. Don’t make the same mistake I did and think it died. It is slow to wake up. At least mine was.
@Erewhon2024
@Erewhon2024 4 жыл бұрын
Triple Crown and Chester thornless blackberries seem to do fine in Zone 5. I would avoid the new primocane types because in my experience they don't ripen fruit (& sometimes don't open flowers) before frost nips them in our climate. Munstead lavender can overwinter here, but only if it has perfect drainage (or you live in Denver, not wet zone 5 like Chicago).

I would love to have thornless blackberries. Our blackberries are volunteers but they have thorns and they are viscous. I planted some black raspberries last year and jerusalem artichokes. I planted goji berries but I don't know if they survived. I have to wait and see. Of course I have lavender, mint, and purple basil. I love having perennials in my garden.

Asparagus is a monocotyledon (one embryonic leaf) flowering plant. The resemblance to ferns, and the terminology for their large, inedible bolting/flowering stage ("ferning"), is coincidental (although in the latter case based on that resemblance). It reproduces using seeds, and it flowers to release or capture pollen. Of actual ferns: The common bracken is carcinogenic, but the "fiddleheads" (young fronds, picked before attaining their tough adult forms) are not acutely poisonous to eat. There are also ferns that are actually edible. All ferns, as well as equisetum, mosses, and quillworts, reproduce using spores released from fertile leaves, which germinate into a free-living plant (which I believe is called a prothallus) that in no way resembles the adult plant, where the plant sex (TMI?) happens.

Great video. I love your mix! I just moved to a new house and was going to do a traditional garden. Tomatoes, Cucumbers, Potatoes, Corn etc. Any idea what I can do to start a group one like yours separately? Maybe I can start that on the other side. What would you say is the top 3-5 easiest of your choices to group like what you have? That way I can have my basic garden on one side and my mix on the other.
