Arugula Wild Organic HEIRLOOM Seeds
Eruca vesicaria sativa
Item #3029
30-45 days. Wild Arugula has a slightly stronger,
more complex flavor than regular
arugula. Its flavor has been
described as peppery, mustardy,
hot with a hint of nut flavor, tart,
and spicy. Most often eaten raw in
salads but also steamed or added
raw to many other dishes (such
as pizza!). Also a good container
variety.
This packet plants two 10-foot rows or four successive sowings of 5-foot rows.
