Wild Rocket (prickly leaf)

1,95

Wild Rocket (Diplotaxis tenuifolia), also known as sand rocket or Italian wild rocket, is the perfect addition to your garden. Known for its intense flavor and slender leaves, wild rocket adds a delicious kick to any dish. We love it mixed with corn salad, balsamic vinegar, and feta. Plus, you can grow and harvest it even during winter!

Pros and cons

According to our gardening experts

  • Very easy to grow
  • Pick and enjoy fresh
  • Requires very little space
  • You only need a few plants
  • Fast-bolting in early summer
  • May become very peppery during warmer months
  • Needs to be picked regularly

Growing rocket (and arugola), is so easy that you’ll never need to buy it from the supermarket again. Enjoy a fresh harvest in autumn, winter, and spring with minimal effort. Simply multisow with three seeds per cell in a module tray with smaller cells. Sow two or three times to ensure an almost year-round harvest.
