Briz

Spicy classic for your garden

For those who prefer growing their own spices, the 'Briz' summer savory variety from the producer 'Sortsemovoshch' is a genuine find. This annual herb displays remarkable stability, which is critical when planning beds for aromatic herbs. The main value of 'Briz' lies in its intense aroma and medicinal properties, which are preserved even after long-term storage following drying.

Cultivation specifics

As a gardener, I would highlight the crop's low maintenance: the seeds show excellent germination, and the plant itself does not require complex agricultural techniques. 'Briz' thrives both in open ground and in small container plantings. Its vegetation period allows for timely harvesting for your spice pantry. Growing experience shows that the plant responds well to regular watering but is quite resilient to temporary temperature fluctuations.

Practical application

• Culinary: An ideal companion for meat and legume dishes. Its specific peppery flavor profile makes it indispensable for vegetable preservation.
• Medicine: Beyond its taste, savory is valued for its antiseptic properties. Infusions and decoctions based on it are traditionally used in home medicine.

When harvesting, it is important not to miss the flowering phase, when the concentration of essential oils in the greens is at its peak. The breeding work by originators Yuri Vasilyev and Anna Vinogradova has resulted in a variety that truly 'works' in the kitchen, rather than just occupying space in the garden.
