Chijimisai

Like tatsoi but with larger crinkly leaves. A cross between two of the most delicious and hardy greens, tatsoi and komatsuna. I have found this to develop larger heads as well so more production than tatsoi. Incredible heat tolerance, I have grown and harvested from these plants until mid July with afternoon shade which is unheard of for leafy greens in south Florida. Substitute for any recipe that calls for spinach, can be eaten raw or cooked. Bonus, no oxalates for those that are sensitive. If I could grow just one green, I think this would be it.

Packet: ~200 seed

Good to start from seed in these months:

North Florida: March-May, September-November

Central Florida: March-May, September-November

South Florida: February-March, October-December
