Notes
'Summer Savoy' spinach (Spinacia oleracea 'Summer Savoy') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and shade gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It ranks among the more cold-hardy crops, and with some winter protection it keeps growing through light freezes. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil. It grows at a rapid pace and has an erect habit, so you can sow it in a pot or a bed.
Pairs well with Sandy lettuce, Ruby Queen beet, and Santo cilantro.
