Description
Brassica rapa
Frilly red and green mottled leaves are a stand-out in the garden and on the plate. This more colorful and delicately-shaped variety of mizuna (also known as Japanese Mustard), adds a little flair to any salad or stir fry, with the same spicy kick as its green-leaved cousin.
Red Streaked Mizuna can be direct-seeded in early spring or late summer, and takes about 40 days to mature. It prefers full sun, but can be grown in partial shade. Midsummer plantings will bolt quickly in heat. Harvest by clipping leaves above the growth point (about an inch above the soil) for cut-and-come-again production.

Ordered 75 seed packets (3 sets of 25 each) to use for a Celebration of Life. Asked for the dimensions via Amazon in order to prepare the message in advance of delivery. Response was quick and accurate (their response: “Each seed packet measures 3.25″ wide x 4.375″ long.”) Seed packets were delivered within 4 days, faster than expected; assorted flower seeds turned out to be perfect; and, they were very meaningful for the occasion. Thank you DIY Tool Supply and Amanda! (Please note the seeds have not yet been planted but I am pretty confident they will bloom
