Green is the statement color.
Envy gets the spotlight.
These are green flowers with main-character energy. Envy Zinnia brings the bold, unexpected color: chartreuse petals that look at home beside emerald velvet, candlelight and a well-set table.
Coriander adds airy white flowers. Fennel brings feathery foliage and golden umbels. Common hyssop supplies purple accents, and lemon basil brings fresh green leaves and a citrus scent.
Grow it for your own garden, cut it for the table, or give it to the person who always makes an evening feel like an occasion.
The star. The supporting cast.
Five varieties. Individually packed.
One black Envy Zinnia packet and four kraft botanical packets: coriander, fennel, common hyssop and lemon basil. Each has a role in the garden’s color, texture or scent.
Five packets. Five places.
Your evening garden starts here.
Choose a sunny site, clear weeds, loosen the soil and water gently after sowing. Plant each variety separately so you can give it the right timing, depth and space. Keep the seed zone evenly moist through germination, then thin crowded seedlings.
| Plant | Approx. height | When to sow | Seed depth | Thin / space | Its part in the evening |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Envy ZinniaZinnia elegans | 24–30 in | After frost, once the soil is warm | ¼ in | 12 in | The green statement flower. Cut regularly for the vase. |
| Coriander / CilantroCoriandrum sativum | 12–30 in in flower | A cool growing window; direct sow | ¼–½ in | 4–6 in; allow more room for seed plants | Fresh leaves first, then airy flowers and mature coriander seed. |
| FennelFoeniculum vulgare | 4–6 ft | Spring, or the locally suitable growing window | ¼–½ in | 18–24 in | Feathery foliage and yellow umbels. Give it its own space at the north/back. |
| Common HyssopHyssopus officinalis | 18–24 in | Spring; trays or direct sow | ¼ in | 12–18 in | Purple flower spikes and aromatic structure. This is true hyssop, not anise hyssop. |
| Lemon BasilOcimum × citriodorum | 12–24 in | After frost, in warm conditions | ¼ in | 12 in | Lemon-scented leaves for a sunny herb patch and fresh garnishes. |
Coriander favors cooler conditions and can move quickly to flower in heat. Sow small batches every 2–3 weeks when conditions suit leaf production. Zinnia and lemon basil need warmth and protection from frost. Common hyssop is perennial; fennel can return in mild climates.
Plan your gin-joint garden
Give Envy the good table.
Use the illustrated 4 × 8 ft Envy bed as one starting idea. Space the zinnias about 12 inches apart, with coriander, lemon basil and common hyssop in their own nearby pockets.
Make room for a tall guest: fennel can reach 4–6 feet. Place it at the north or back of the planting, with room to mature, so it does not shade the shorter flowers and herbs.
This is an example garden design, not a claim about how much ground the entire kit will cover. Scale the planting to your space and thin to the recommended spacing.

From the garden to cocktail hour
Grow the garnish.
Grow the envy.
Cut open zinnia blooms on firm stems, remove foliage that would sit below the waterline, and arrange in a clean vase with fresh water. Add airy botanical stems to soften the flowers’ bold shapes.
Grow lemon basil for fresh lemon-scented leaves, fennel for aromatic fronds, and coriander for mature dry seed. Use correctly identified, clean garden-grown herbs suited to culinary use. The planting seed in the packets is not a ready-to-eat garnish.
Keep the zinnias as your cut-flower stars. Let the herbs inspire the drinks and the evening.
Before the party starts
A few good things to know.
Is this one seed mix?
No. You receive five separately packed varieties. Sow each one separately, following its own growing window and spacing.
Will all five plants bloom at the same time?
Timing varies. Zinnia and basil favor warmth, coriander favors a cooler start, and perennial plants can take longer to settle in. Use the collection as a coordinated palette and enjoy it as the plants develop.
Can I buy two of the same kit and still save?
Yes. Every pair of eligible seed kits saves $5 automatically. Two Gin & Chartreuse kits, two Midnight Moth kits, or one of each all qualify. A better eligible offer applies when available; discounts do not stack.
Does the collection include gin or Chartreuse liqueur?
This is a flower and botanical seed collection for planting. The garden and cocktail imagery show the atmosphere and possible garden uses; beverages and accessories are not included.
From cocktail hour to the dinner table

Gin & Chartreuse brings green statement flowers and aromatic herbs. Bloom Appétit adds a colorful edible-flower garden for the menu. Plant a little of both, and make an occasion of what you grow.
