FREE: Red Stem Malabar Spinach Seeds

The listing, Red Stem Malabar Spinach Seeds has ended.

Large, mild-flavored green leaves look terrific climbing up a bean tower, mailbox post, or fence!

The red stems really jazz up the plate!
55 days. The thick, dark green leaves of this edible ornamental provide tasty greens throughout the summer, when traditional spinach will not grow. The mild flavor makes Red Stem equally good cooked or fresh, and is more palatable to children than the peppery cool-season varieties.
Heat-loving and vigorous, these attractive plants reach 6 feet or more if trained on a bean tower, trellis, lamppost, or any vertical structure with some porousness for twining. The plants sport scarlet stems that contrast beautifully with the deep green of the thick, broad leaves. Many people grow Red Stem for purely ornamental purposes, but there's a lot of good eating on this productive plant!

Start seeds indoors, then transplant into the garden or large container (with support) in late spring. Nothing is easier or more productive. 15 seeds.
