60 days. Tetragonia tetragonoides. Open Pollinated. New Zealand Spinach. The plant produces excellent yields of very flavorful, distinctive arrowhead-shaped lime green leaves. It is not true spinach, but the leaves have a similar taste to spinach, and some people think they taste better than spinach. It produces small, thick, tender, dark green triangular leaves. Perfect for stir fry, spinach pies, and garlicky spinach recipes. The more you cut them, the more they will produce. This variety produces continuously all year, from spring to fall. Unlike regular spinach, it thrives in hot summers and can tolerate droughts. Heat Tolerant. Drought Tolerant. An excellent choice for home gardens. United States Department of Agriculture, PI 597641. A 1772 heirloom from New Zealand.

Spinach Planting Information:

Spinach is a curly leaf plant and is used fresh or cooked like a green. Spinach does not do well in very hot weather. It will stop producing leaves during the hot summer days. You can have successive plantings throughout the year by planting every three weeks. Spinach seeds are usually planted directly in the garden. In the spring, plant seeds 4 to 6 weeks before the last frost date. Plant in August for a fall harvest. Plants grow 3 - 8" tall.

Soil Requirements:

Requires fertile soil in a well-drained location in the garden. Apply mulch, grass clippings, or straw around the base of the plant.

Water Requirements:

Keep soil consistently moist. Water well during dry and hot spells. Water in the morning only, on the side of the plants, and not directly on the leaves.

Fertilizer Requirements:

Use Slow Release (6 Month) Fertilizer when transplanting outdoors. Apply Miracle-Gro Liquid Fertilizer periodically.

Harvest Tips:

You can cut outer leaves as you need them if you want the plant to produce more leaves, or you can cut the entire plant at ground level.
