Arugula Seeds - Italian

The luscious tangy leaves of Italian arugula, also called rocket salad in England and roquette in France, are easy to grow, carefree and absolutely essential in today's wonderful salads. The nutty zip they give to mixtures of lettuce and other greens becomes a taste you'll crave and wouldn't do without. Peppery arugula complements the traditional summer tests of basil and sun-warmed tomatoes, and goes equally well with cool season salads of heartier greens, nuts and pears or apples.

Plant In: Feb - May & Sept.- Nov | Sun/Shade: Full Sun or Part Day Shade | Planting Depth: 1/4" / Space Seeds: 1" | Days to Germinate: 7 - 10 | Mature Height: 8 - 10 inches

If you let the arugula flower, the blooms may be used for a spicy salad garnish. However if you let it flower it will go to seed and stop producing leaves. So it is a great thing to do before your first hard frost at the very end of the season.

The standard arugula. At maturity the long, dark green, lobed leaves form a loose, open bunch. Easy to grow, baby or full size. Sprinkle flowers over salads; add to vegetable stir frys. Harvest as flowers appear. Will reseed vigorously.
