This vegetable is sometimes known as 
Scotch or German Greens. T'he plant will 
grow about five feet tall on moist soil.

than ordinary spinach. The rows should 
be at least 18 inches apart and the plants 
thinned out to about 6 inches for best re¬ 
suits. Orach will thrive on moist soil that 
is too acid or too poor for common spin¬ 
ach. It is worth trying in every garden.
