Wildfire arugula seeds produce a beautiful, sweet flavour followed by a mild peppery kick. This superb arugula grows like wildfire and is ready to pick just 40 days after sowing for baby greens. Its bright green, slightly serrated leaves grow upright instead of spreading out on the ground. Wildfire is slow to bolt, and perfect for market growing or for patio containers. Wildfire arugula seeds are excellent for use as micro-greens. Even when tiny, the distinctive arugula flavour is strong. Try sprinkling some over cooked pizza just before serving.
Matures in 40 days. (Open-pollinated seeds)
