KITCHEN GARDEN
KITCHEN GARDENTraditional plants, newly grown
Mombacher Winter, Gonsenheimer Treib, and Hunsrücker fava bean – the Kitchen Garden on the premises of the Botanic Garden at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) has all these and many other rare agricultural crop plants and regional varieties that have been almost forgotten. An immense variety can be found on only 100 square mete rs, providing a number of surprises: flowering lettuce over here, and an onion watching the carrots over there.
