An heirloom Japanese mustard green from the Kyoto region of Japan.

Extremely cold tolerant making it perfect for growing in our colder months.

Mizuna is a vigorous plant with deeply cut serrated leaves that have a spicy flavour. It can be eaten raw in a salad or cooked in a stir fry and soups etc. This purple variety is a real stunner.

Direct sow mizuna seeds in spring or sow undercover in late summer/early autumn. Avoid mid summer sowings as plants may bolt in hot weather. Harvest the leaves regularly.
