Details

Rocket Arugula adds a refreshing tangy spiciness to fresh dishes and is perfect for cut-and-come-again, cool-season succession plantings for a continual supply of fresh young leaves until hard frosts.

Lacinato Kale is perhaps the poster child for cool-season growing, yet it can thrive in warmer weather if the soil is kept consistently slightly moist. One of the richest flavors to come out of the garden, its flavor becomes sweeter as the weather cools.

Giant Nobel Spinach is the epitome of fresh, tender, juicy, delicious spinach - especially in cooler weather when it becomes sweeter. The large, crunchy leaves are gently crinkled, perfect for sandwiches, salads, or lightly cooked dishes. Scrumptious folded into an omelette with aged Italian cheese.

Rainbow Swiss Chard is distinguished by its bouquet of wrinkled, slightly savoyed rich green and bronze leaves with beautiful technicolor shades of red, orange, purple, yellow and white stems. The leaves are succulent and tender when young, growing upright and tall from a dense rosette of myriad-colored ribbed stems.

Tatsoi Mustard is related to Chinese cabbage, but like the offbeat, cool cousin that looks exotic but is easy to grow. Very cold tolerant and prolific, tatsoi leaves are crunchy and tender with a mild, sweet flavor with nutty, tangy, and mustard-like nuances that add interest to cool-weather salads. The visually intriguing spoon-shaped leaves have crisp stalks, making it friendly in a number of cuisines and dishes.

Corn Salad/Lambs Lettuce/Mache is quick-growing, perfect for cut-and-come-again harvesting for a continual supply of leaves in cool weather or can be cut whole once the head has filled in. The young leaves are delicate and tender, like butterhead lettuce, but a bit more herbal, while mature leaves are used much like spinach.
