- In summer, order darling, miniature sugarloaf pineapples from Lady Di in Eleuthera. They make gorgeous garnishes. Potted miniature pineapples make lovely take-home gifts.
- Line fresh, potted herbs along your kitchen counter and use them to decorate your dining table.

- Source local allspice shrubs to cultivate as culinary standards.
- There are three distinct varietals grown in The Bahamas: standard allspice, anise, and citron. Broken leaves release an unmistakable je ne sais quoi in sauces, broths, traditional meals.
