Botanical Interests Arugula Astro Organic Seeds

'Astro' has stellar qualities!  Slower-to-bolt, wider leaves, and a milder flavor when young all make for a real winner!  An excellent "cut and come again" crop.   Because 'Astro' has wider leaves and is slower-to-bolt than other arugulas, you will be enjoying more leaf per harvest and a longer harvest period.  With its milder flavor, it makes a delectable baby green, harvestable in just about a month!  The peppery flavor many of us love ramps up over time and as spring temperature heats up.  Afternoon shade helps prolong the harvest.  Also a good container variety. Organic.  Frost Tolerant.  Sow in early spring or late summer.  #3101
