🥗 Grow Mizuna Greens – The Perfect Mild & Sweet Addition to Salads! 🥗
Mizuna Greens are fast-growing, versatile, and mild enough to enjoy fresh in salads or cooked in stir-fries and soups. These feathery, light-green leaves have a mild mustard flavor that adds texture and depth to any dish. Mizuna grows vigorously and can be harvested at any stage, from baby greens to fully mature plants. It's a great option for continuous "cut-and-come-again" harvests and thrives in cool weather, even under low light conditions.
🌱 Why Choose Mizuna Greens?

✔ Cut-and-Come-Again – Harvest individual leaves or cut the whole plant; it regrows!
✔ Perfect for Cool-Season Growing – Grows in spring, fall, and even winter with protection
✔ Versatile Growing Options – Works well in garden beds, containers, or as microgreens
✔ Fast-Growing & Easy to Cultivate – Matures in just 45 days
