Vibrant flavor, tender leaves
by Dorothy
Vibrant flavor and tender leaves suited our 2 year old granddaughter. I was able to overwinter this spinach in an unheated hoop-house in zone 6a until it bolted in later April. I harvested it every 6 or 7 days right through January when it slowed. February harvest was once, probably due to the cloudy weather. In March I harvested it every 10 or 11 days. April I tried to stay ahead of the bolting but was unsuccessful even though I was harvesting it every 4 or 5 days.
