How to grow

Sow seeds 1/2 inch deep in soil around 50 to 75°F; germination takes 7 to 14 days, and pre-soaking overnight can help. Grow in full sun to part shade and thin to 2 to 4 inches apart. Pick leaves regularly to encourage continuous growth and a longer harvest.

Mild and earthy with smooth, tender leaves. Sweet enough for fresh salads and sturdy enough to saute or wilt into cooked dishes.
