If you are looking for great-tasting, heat-resistant greens, look no further.

Produces very broad, thick white stalks, and thick, crinkly dark green leaves throughout summer and fall. An attractive plant that is long-lasting too. Both the stalks and leaves can be picked while the plant continues to grow. Can also be grown in containers. This is the best variety for greens as it always produces a bumper crop of tasty leaves – even during periods of high temperatures.
