A distant cousin of spinach, this variety is technically not a true spinach but is used similarly for its texture and flavor. This unique variety has small spear-shaped leaves and grows tall and upright. There's no reason to worry about early bolting here. This variety is heat tolerant and will produce all summer long. A great source of vitamin C.
I've had NZ before. Looking forward to seeing this, this summer. 😋
New Zealand Spinach is easy to grow and slow to bolt. Its sprawling vines sport thick leaves that are wonderful in salad, stir fry, lasagna, and pesto.
In zone 5a, it usually self-seeds and returns the following spring.
Just received in the mail and planted out in my Greenstalk. Excited to see if this truly can handle the heat and humidity this summer.
Fantastic germination rate and looking good so far!
I winter sowed these. They did very well.
Grew these for the past three years and I will keep growing them for many more. I highly recommend them. Great germination rate. Every onion grew to the size of baseballs and others a bit bigger and they store very well.Best long day onion I have ever grow.
I am very happy with my heirloom seeds. I cannot wait to germinate them.
Started my seeds on 12/31/25. I’ve had almost 100% germination and the onion seedlings are a couple of inches tall at this point (1/9/26). Looking forward to a great harvest!
Grew these last year, so I bought more seeds! they were awesome, very prolific and tasted great!!
I started them early....did waterjug winter seed starts .. they did very well....grew up to be nice sturdy plants, bearing lots of fruit! Thank You!!
