Spinach

Lettuce

Spinacia oleracea

Overview
Spinach is a nutrient-dense leafy green with tender, deep green leaves that develop characteristic slight crinkles as they mature. Ready to harvest in approximately 25 days, this hybrid variety transitions from a mild, slightly sweet flavor when young to a more complex, mineral-rich taste with age. It thrives in cool seasons and performs well in full sun to partial shade conditions. Spinach is versatile in the kitchen—equally excellent fresh in salads when young or cooked in mature form. Its rapid growth and ease of cultivation make it ideal for beginner gardeners seeking quick, reliable harvests.
