Special Features:
Most Asian Greens are moderately hardy annuals and can be sown from early spring through midsummer. Asian greens are in the same family as mustards but tend to have a mild flavor and lack the spiciness that many mustards are known for. Asian greens include an assortment of species that can be grown for baby leaf or full size crops.  Heat tolerant greens with dark-green, glossy leaves and white, juicy midribs. Harvest at any stage and use in salads, as braising greens, boiled or pickled. Stronger flavor as plants mature.
 
Approx. 250 seeds per package.
