Arugula Seeds
Perfect Plant for Living Walls & Container/Apartment Gardening!
Sow this seed every two weeks in spring for a long, delicious harvest.
Peppery-Mustardy Flavor Wakes Up the Palate!
Once a rare delicacy, Arugula is now part of the American dinner table. But for what it costs at the fresh market, growing your own is the only sane option! And it's a good thing it's so easy to grow -- you can sow the seeds successively every 2 weeks all spring to guarantee yourself a big harvest over many months to come!
This plant reaches about 2 1/2 feet tall and 1 foot wide, with leaves best cut at 2 to 3 inches long. Cut just what you need for the next meal; each leaf that is severed stimulates production of more foliage, so a single plant can keep producing over a long season. And the flavor is so delectable when the leaves are young and tender -- peppery and mustardy, with a palate-cleansing zing! Great in pesto, too -- just don't let the leaves get too big, because they will lose their tender texture with maturity.
Start seeds indoors 3 to 4 weeks before last frost. They should germinate in 3 to 4 days at 40 to 55 degrees F. When the seedlings are 4 weeks old, transplant them into rows about 18 inches apart, in full sun to dappled shade and loose, rich soil. Pkt is 100 seeds.

Great Choice for Living Walls & Apartment Gardeners!
Contains butterhead, crisphead, loose-leaf, and Romaine for a GREAT VALUE!
A custom blend of 7 exceptionally heat-tolerant, slow-bolting varieties you will love!
45 days (on average) to maturity.
Even if your summer weather sometimes begins in March, you can enjoy a long, delicious season of fresh lettuce with our custom-blended mixture of 7 heat-tolerant varieties. Specially selected to resist bolting and keep their flavorful crunch right into summer, the outstanding lettuces in this mixture will keep you in fresh leaves three seasons out of the year!
We have chosen 7 varieties for this blend, including butterheads (Boston lettuce), crispheads (iceberg), Romaine, and loose-leaves. Several have stunning red highlights on their foliage; all are guaranteed tasty and crisp even into the dog days of summer! These are all premium named varieties, available as a mixture only here at Park Seed, where we know about long, hot summers!
The average days to maturity is 45, with most varieties harvesting at about the same time -- a delicious mix of flavors and textures that looks as good as it tastes in the garden or salad bowl! Sow successively 2 or 3 weeks apart for an entire season of "late" lettuce!
Lettuce thrives in cold weather and can be sown directly into the garden, starting in early spring. For an even earlier harvest, sow indoors; the seedlings don't mind transplanting. If a fall crop is desired, begin in late summer. Grow in single rows, plants spaced 18 inches apart, or in containers.
Pkt is 150 seeds.
This MicroGreen Growing Kit comes with everything you need to grow your own super nutritious microgreens no matter how little space you have to work with.
Microgreens are perfect for a beginner gardener because they are harvested as soon as they put on their first true leaves (i.e., you don't have to keep them alive as long as other their mature versions). They may be micro in size, but not in nutrition. Leaves from all ten of the microgreens in this Kit have four to six times more nutrients than their mature leaves of the same plant, including vitamin C, vitamin E, and other phytochemicals.
Includes:
2 Large Plant & Propagation Trays
24 6" x 4" Propagation Trays
pH Test Strip Kit
Mister Spray Bottle

Disease-resistant and very heavy-bearing, Cajun Belle's got it all!
This 2010 AAS winner routinely wins taste tests, so prepare for sweet, mildly hot flavor that everyone in the family will find irresistible!
60 days from transplanting.
Talk about an ornamental edible! This pepper is grown for flavor, flavor, and still more flavor -- yet take one look at it and you might think of designing your entire patio garden around its bright good looks! (Go right ahead!) Boasting a combination of sweet and mildly spicy flavor packed with vitamin C, these mini bells ripen from green to scarlet to deep red on vigorous, disease-resistant plants just 2 feet high and wide. What's not to love?
The fruit is about 3 inches long and 2 inches in diameter, with 3 or 4 plump lobes and plenty of delectable eating. It arises in huge numbers, and the longer you let it mature on the plant, the more nutritious it becomes. A fully-fruiting plant at the height of the season is a summer Christmas tree of green, scarlet, and red!
But Cajun Belle is really renowned for its flavor. Stuff the peppers, slice them raw into salads and snack plates, or mince them for sauteing -- that rich burst of sweet-and-hot taste remains! This variety has never known a taste test it didn't ace. No wonder it won a 2010 All-America Selection!
Boasting good disease resistance, Cajun Belle needs no staking, and performs as well on the patio as it does in the garden. You will love its ease of growth, space-saving size, and delicious peppers!
