Has anyone grown this? I might try it especially since it doesn't bolt during hot weather.


New Zealand Spinach (Tetragonia)

60 days — 'New Zealand Spinach' can be grown as a perennial in warmer climates but is typically grown as an annual. It is not related to true spinach but the leaves taste similar to, and some think better than, spinach. It does not bolt in hot weather nor does it typically turn bitter and it is valued because of its high vitamin C content.

'New Zealand Spinach is a very old heirloom introduced into England in 1772 by Sir Joseph Banks. It was reportedly discovered during the South Seas expedition of Captain Cook. Each packet contains four grams, which is approximately 15 seeds.
