A hardy plant grown for its leaves, which are used as 
boiling “greens” or salad. Seed should be sown thinly 
in drill early in spring. When well started thin out to 
stand four to six inches apart in the row. The leaves 
can be gathered for use at any time after the plants are 
well started in growth, and the roots ‘will continue to 
produce a further supply. The plant is entirely hardy, 
and, starting into growth early the following spring, 
will afford a large supply of fine “greens” quite early in 
the spring.
