• Open Pollinated. 85 days. Heirloom.
• Easy to grow, upright, compact weather resistant. 
• Sow in July for winter crop. 
• First leaves are mottled green, followed by lovely crimson-white heads. 
• I like planting these in a container and then adding pink tulips.

Planting Directions:  Plant in early spring and again in early July for a fall harvest.  Soil temperature should be 55-75˚ for best germination with seed planted 1/4” deep. Thin plants when they are 1” high to 8” apart.  Protect from hot weather by using shade cloth. Greens harvested in colder weather tend to be sweeter.
