Wrinkled Crumpled Cress

Wrinkled Crinkled Crumpled Cress Organic

$2.95 $0.00

  • Lepidium sativum Open pollinated. 35 days. Organic.
  • Undoubtedly the finest cress variety available today. Large leaves of  Wrinkled Crinkled Crumpled Cress  are quite ruffled and savoyed. Spicy flavor is a welcome addition to salads.
  • Any greens that become over mature can be stir-fried and served with a few drops of lemon juice and olive oil.
  • Sow a small patch of this fast growing, cool weather green every two weeks for a steady supply of tender young cress.

Planting Directions:  Plant outdoors after last frost and again in September to mature before first hard frost. Plant in rows 8” to 10” apart. Plant seed ¼” deep. Cut 2” from the base to allow several harvests of cress. Successive plantings may be made as long as weather is cool.
