Golden frills, organic seed
Eco
Information
Golden Frills is a salad mustard with fringed, light green leaves and a delicious, peppery flavor. It can be grown both as baby leaves or harvested a little later when it has fully grown. The stems can then be stir-fried. The spicy taste becomes more distinct as the plant develops, but after a frost night, the leaves may become slightly milder again. Golden Frills is best grown early in the spring or from mid-July. Annual.
One portion contains about 250 seeds.
