Known as Mustard Spinach in the United States but is actually neither Mustard nor Spinach. The tender dark green glossy leaves have a distinct flavour between Mustard and Cabbage, with a hint of Spinach, but with little pungency. Very quick and easy to grow. (30 days in summer)
Maturity 60 days from direct sowing.
