(Annual)

KNOWN FOR its dazzling magenta leaves and towering height, this is not only an ornamental addition to the garden but also has a spinach-like flavour. It’s ideal for salads and for stir-frying.

Planting
Plant in beds or containers, in well-drained soil or compost, in full sun or partial shade.

Care
Keep well watered until established, and in dry weather. Self-seeds easily.

Height & Spread:
Up to 2 – 3m × 1m.

Harvesting
Harvest the young leaves and tender tips using scissors or your fingertips. It's best to pick leaves in the morning when they are most tender. Harvesting regularly promotes new growth, but be careful not to over-harvest, as this can weaken the plant.
