Product description
Perpetual Spinach is a robust and easy-to-grow leaf beet variety, prized for its continuous production of dark green, tender leaves with a mild, sweet flavour. This versatile vegetable is a great addition to any garden, offering a reliable crop that thrives even in cooler conditions. Its ability to resist bolting makes it ideal for UK gardens, ensuring a steady supply of fresh greens throughout the growing season.
To get the best results, sow Perpetual Spinach seeds directly outdoors from March to July. Plant the seeds in well-prepared soil, spacing rows 30cm apart and sowing them at a depth of 2.5cm. Once the seedlings have grown large enough to handle, thin them out to 15cm apart to allow ample room for development. This hardy vegetable prefers a sunny or partially shaded location and requires minimal maintenance beyond regular watering.
For an ongoing harvest, begin picking the outer leaves from June, continuing until November. Regular harvesting encourages new growth, allowing you to enjoy fresh, home-grown spinach over an extended period. Whether used in salads, stir-fries, or as a cooked green, Perpetual Spinach is a nutritious and delicious addition to your garden's vegetable patch.
