Organic Non-GMO Open Pollinated Mizuna Seeds

A delicious leafy green vegetable native to Japan. Mizuna is characterized by its feathery, serrated leaves that form a rosette shape. The leaves are typically bright green and have a mild, peppery flavor. Valued for its delicate texture and slightly spicy taste, which adds a pleasant kick to salads, stir-fries, soups, and other dishes.

Its versatility in the kitchen makes it a popular choice among chefs and home cooks alike.  Rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, folate and calcium.

Mizuna thrives in cool weather and is well-suited for cultivation in both spring and fall. It can tolerate light frosts but may bolt (produce flowers) in hot weather.

We love it fresh in salads or cooked in stir-fries and soups, Mizuna is a valuable addition to our international kitchen garden.
