Red Streaks adds a little flare of peppery tang and a flare of colour to your salads and stir fires, and your soups or stews. Milder than rocket the young fringed red/purple & green striped leaves develop a stronger flavour when mature and a stronger colour when cooler weather sets in. This Mizuna will continue to grow and provide its mild spicy kick for most of the year.
