Tender, fast-growing greens with a delicate flavor have a triangular shape, pleasant texture green, spiky edges and grow in pretty, open rosettes. Use them raw (good mesclun ingredient) or cooked like spinach and chard.
As a bonus, mature plants produce 1/2" ruby-colored fruits or "berries" which are cheerful as well as edible, and can be mashed, in quantities, to make a juice or to color other foods.
Plants love heat and the leaves are an excellent addition to summer salads. They're also attractive enough to grow in garden borders or containers. 45 days. Approx 50 seeds per pack
