Brassica, Mustard Greens 'Mizuna' Heirloom
- Sun Preference
- Full-Sun, Part-Sun
Description
Mizuna, or Japanese mustard, is a tasty, quick-growing green for mixed salads and light cooking. Easy-to-grow “cut and come again” leaves have a peppery, mildly bitter taste with a hint of sweetness. Best when grown during cool weather and harvested young.
Mizuna grows best in cool weather and can withstand considerable frost. Plant in rich soil and full sun, or light shade in warmer climates, in very early spring. Or, plant in fall or winter in mild climates. Keep soil evenly moist. Harvest by cutting entire plant at soil level, or cut leaves a few inches above the soil to encourage continual harvest.
Brassica rapa var. japonica
