Description
Corn salad is a traditional ingredient in early spring European salads. Its subtle, nutty flavor adds a new dimension to mixed salad greens. Grow as a very early spring variety. Overwinters well in most climates.
Sow in rich, moist soil in very early spring or late fall. Thin to about 2″ apart and use the thinnings as baby salad greens. Harvest by pulling the entire plant when leaves are young.
Valerianella locusta
