Productinformation
Wild rocket (Diplotaxis tenuifolia) also known as sand rocket or Italian wild rocket
The wild variety has that desired intense flavor and slimmer leaves. We especially like it mixed with corn salad, balsamic vinegar, and feta. You can even grow and harvest during winter! did you know that this rocket is a perennial and part of the brassica family? You do not need to grow that many plants because the flavor is intense!
Grow summer sowing under cover in seed trays and plant out in a greenhouse or polytunnel. You can also pot them into P9 or 15-cell seed trays and transplant them outdoors in early spring.
