Description
Lepidium sativum
Dainty leaves add an unexpected, thrilling flavor to ho-hum salads & dishes!
This wonderful dainty little variety bred by Wild Garden Seed is much easier to grow than watercress, and well worth the effort. Great for small spaces, its diminutive leaves make your tongue do cartwheels with their unique, lovely floral-herbal-spice flavor. After you’ve eaten your fill & your standard, boring dishes have gotten a zesty boost from this good-timin’ little number, let it go to seed—immature seedheads make a striking cut flower! A super fast-growing crop; fabulous in containers.
Seeds grown by Earthly Delights Farm in Boise, Idaho.
