Spinacia oleracea.
Bloomsdale Spinach seeds came from Philadelphia in the late 19th century by D. Landreth & Sons Seed Company. The crisp dark-green leaves of this spreading plant are broad, fast-maturing and monoecious.
As a hardy crop, this heavily-savoyed spinach tolerates heat better than others. Organic Bloomsdale Long Standing Spinach provides bright flavor with tender leaves, as this annual is a popular variety to plant in your garden to either juice, sautee, bake or eat fresh!
