Nai Pe Tsai Baby Bok Choy is a baby type that is fast-growing, with vigorous, 7"-8" plants of deep-green leaves, succulent and crunchy with a mild, mustardy flavor. One of the most used vegetables in various Oriental dishes due to its excellent flavor, texture and size.
Harvested young, the plants can be cooked whole or halved. Even older stalks are tender enough to eat raw or lightly cooked - stir-fried, steamed, sauteed or in salads. Suitable for spring, summer and fall planting.

Mizuna Mustard is a cool-season crop, this Japanese heirloom green should be started in early spring or late summer. Slow to bolt, tolerates both heat and cold, extending the season nicely for both short- and long-growing climates.

Tatsoi Chinese Mustard has grouped, broad dark green thick spoon shaped leaves in a large rosette, mild flavored salad green, also good for stir fry.
Very cold tolerant, this is a great green that is featured in Eliot Coleman's The Winter Harvest Handbook. Many consider the flavor superior to Bok Choy with its high calcium and vitamin content. Can be harvested at almost any stage of its growth.
