A graceful plant in flower beds and containers, and also a tender, Japanese mustard green that is milder than other mustards, and ready to harvest in as little as 3 weeks as tender baby greens. Beautiful and prolific, and withstands heat longer than lettuce without bolting. Use fresh in salads, steam, or stir-fry. Seeds will germinate even in cold and wet spring conditions. This packet sows up to 22 feet.

When to sow outside: RECOMMENDED. 4 to 6 weeks before your average last frost date, when soil temperature is at least 40°F, ideally 60°-75°F. Successive Sowings: Every 3 weeks until 10 to 12 weeks before your average first fall frost date for continuous harvest. Mild Climates: Sow in late fall through winter for cool-season harvest.

When to start inside: Not recommended; transplant stress can cause plants to bolt (prematurely flower).
