Mustard – Ruby Mizuna

Nicely lobed purple/bronze leaves have serrated edges that add interest to fresh salad and braising mixes. The underside of the leaves and stems are green for an attractive colour contrast. Best grown to baby leaf size, Ruby mizuna performs exceptionally well in cool weather and is fast to germinate, even in cool soil. It is a good choice for container growing, for winter harvests, and for microgreens. Sow repeated short rows at three-week intervals and you can have a continuous harvest of mild, nutritious greens.
