Bloomsdale No. 5 spinach

Garden uses

Notes

'Bloomsdale No. 5' 5 spinach (Spinacia oleracea 'Bloomsdale No. 5') is a vegetable for food gardens and containers. It is typically grown as an annual. Few crops handle cold as well, and with a little winter protection it grows on through light freezes. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil. It grows at a rapid rate and has an erect habit, so you can harvest leaves soon after planting.

Pairs well with Great Lakes lettuce, Peppermint Swiss chard, and Moss Curled parsley.
