Mispoona

A totally new vegetable we introduced for the first time in 2006, created by Frank Morton by crossing Tatsoi with Mizuna. We really like it. It combines the bolt-resistance of Mizuna with the big leaves of Tatsoi. You can sow it in spring or midsummer, and it very quickly makes big rosettes of dark green leaves that are delicious raw or cooked. Every time we grow it we are simply amazed by how quickly and hugely the plants head up. For a sense of scale, the yellow thing in the photo is a standard 4-inch plant label!

Wonderful.. Limited seed every year, so order early.
