Komatsuna Kimono F1 has super dark green upright leaves. This makes picking easy from babyleaf (will resprout) through to maturity, keeping the leaves clear of soil splash and accessible. Enjoy raw in salads or as a versatile cooked green with a long season to grow and harvest.
SOW & GROW: from March onwards to September (protect late sowings from frost). Sow sparingly a pinch every few weeks for a supply of young leaves. They prefer sun but will grow, with less colouring, in the shade.
EAT & ENJOY: cut the plants when 10-15 tall. You can simply cut or chop a few leaves into a mixed salad. Wilt them in a little butter in a pan, add to stir fry or steam and serve with olive oil and lemon juice. These are hardy and late sowings will crop well into the winter.
