Wrinkled Crinkled Crumpled Cress

Lepidium sativum. 21 days. Another farm-bred variety from breeder Frank Morton. These fast growing little plants pack a peppery punch in your salad while the curled, twisted leaves add loft. Multiple cuttings are possible as it is very slow to bolt. Stems are erect which makes cutting easier and leaves cleaner. One of our favorite salad mix ingredients.
