Watercress grows best in cool, clean, flowing water, so in the lowlands it is a little slower and works best in a shady spot. A rewarding project for patient gardeners who like soup greens.

  1. Fill a pot with fine soil and stand it in a tray of water so the soil stays soaked.
  2. Scatter the tiny seeds on the surface and keep them in bright shade.
  3. Thin to 10–15 cm apart once seedlings have a few leaves.
  4. Cut stems about 10 cm long; the plant branches and regrows.

Tip: change the tray water every 2–3 days — it keeps the water fresh and stops mosquitoes from breeding.
