Ornamental vegetables — edibles that earn their place on looks

Ornamental vegetables blur the line between the veg patch and the flower border — rainbow chard, frilly ornamental kale, striped tomatoes, jewel-like chillies and decorative gourds that look as good as they taste. They're a beautiful way to dress up our vegetable seed range. New to growing? Our vegetable growing guide covers the basics.

Beauty and a harvest. Plant edibles for colour and still fill the kitchen — the calendar shows when to sow.

Colour from the kitchen garden

Think frilly ornamental kales, fiery chillies and decorative gourds and squash. For more crossover colour, our edible flowers bring blooms you can actually eat to the plot and the plate.

Growing for show and supper

Grow them just like any veg — good soil (our soil guide helps), steady water and the odd feed — but place them where you'll enjoy the display, from potager beds to pots by the door. Many are perfect for our container range.

Designing a potager? Weave ornamental edibles through borders and pots for colour you can harvest.

Popular categories: Edible Flowers · Ornamental Kale · Chilli Peppers · Gourds & Squash · Container Veg

At SeedsChoice, every order ships from Meppel, NL with fast, tracked EU delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are ornamental vegetables?
Edible plants grown as much for their looks as the kitchen — ornamental kale, rainbow chard, colourful chillies and decorative gourds.

Can I eat them?
Most yes, though some decorative gourds are grown purely for display — check each variety.

Where should I plant them?
Anywhere you'll enjoy the colour — potager beds, mixed borders or pots by the door.

Are they harder to grow?
No — grow them just like any other vegetable.

Do they pair well with edible flowers?
Yes — together they make a beautiful, productive potager you can harvest from.
