AnnualIn between lettuce and cabbage, this plant has a similar time to maturity as the two. It is a bitter green that is packed with nutrients. Nicely bitter and spicy leaves become sweeter when cooked; a favorite Italian method is grilling this with olive oil. Use sparingly with other greens it can add color as well as some important antioxidants. Grow these to add to your favorite salad mix!
Great price on these seeds
I am excited to grow this wonderful veggie to help me stay healthy and help my mom use food as medicine against cancer. While I know it’s not a cure in and of itself, it has many great properties to strengthen and fight off disease. What a blessing to go out in your garden and bring in edible health treasures—let food be thy medicine, as Hippocrates once said;)
Any leafy thing with reddish leaves does better in heat than green in terms of bolting. This is no exception. My zone 9b/10a, we dont really get winter weather, so the best i can do is something like this. It isnt a lettuce, so to speak, but goes well mixed in a salad. I like them as baby greens mixed into other lettuce to make a mesclun type salad mix. It has some bitterness when it gets full grown in heat, but this is true of other types of this radiccio. Germination was near 100%.
Pkg looking good.. can't wait to plant them!
Growing well
I grow these every year and they do very well. The harvest never makes it back into the house. I love to snack on them while I’m in the garden and my kids enjoy them too.
Rose tomatoe. I planted 5 seeds 4 germinated. I already transplanted them.
This basil is insane!! It’s growing so fast and the leaves are as big as the palm of my hand!
Awesome color on these. Beautiful addition to the (majority pink shades) zinnias I usually grow.
I have way more celery than I have room to plant!
