Wrinkled Crinkled Cress, organic seeds

Eco

Information

Is a different variant of mustard cress, creased, curly, spoon-shaped leaves of clear-green colour and a spicy sweet taste of cress. The leaves, in looks, resemble something between flat-leaved- and curly parsley. Wrinkled, crinkled cress remains ready for harvest longer without beginning to bloom than the common cress, but should still be sowed gradually to provide fresh crops of leaves during the whole season. This plant is grown in plots outdoors as often as under glass. 380 seeds/g. A portion contains about 1500 seeds.
