Brassica juncea
This very tasty and ornamental mustard can be eaten at baby stage for mixes and salads and full grown as a very nutritional green. The more mature the plant the darker the colour and more intense the flavour. Equally at home in the edible and ornamental gardens with its dark red crinkled leaves and bright green midribs. Even the flowers and seed pods are a spicy addition to your table. When harvesting, leave a few new leaves to encourage new growth and future harvests; or harvest as full bunches. 25-45 days, 700 seeds
