This variety was popular in Victorian times for its non hearting crops of long, wavy leaves. Expect a bumper crop of long, dark green leaves with a mild flavour. With a nearly year long cropping period, a second sowing is an option in autumn. Delicious steamed or in soups and also ideal for making Chinese crispy seaweed!

Sow seed indoors from February to March at a depth of 1cm deep. Keep at a temp of 20-25C until germination (4 -7 days). Grow plants on in cooler conditions until all risk of frost has passed and plants have 2-3 true leaves. Acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 – 10 days before planting out in full sun.
Plant in fertile soil at a distance of 50cm apart and cover with a protective netting or fleece to prevent attack from birds and insects. Water the plants thoroughly after planting. A second sowing from August to September can be made for overwintering. If all flower shoots are diligently removed, plants can be treated almost as perennial.
