Brassica rapa var nipposinica, Feathery Dark Glossy Purple / Green Tinged Leaf, Exceptionally attractive & very hardy cut-&-come-again Asian salad green. It grows quickly, forming a bushy rosette of finely cut, dark green, glossy leaves with vivid purple veins & margins. The leaves are crisp, with a mild, peppery mustard flavour that becomes stronger as the plant matures, while the short stalks remain juicy & tender. It can be harvested at any stage, from seedlings to fully grown plants, with younger leaves offering the most delicate texture. Rarely found in supermarket baby-leaf mixes, this performs especially well from late spring thru summer as it is slow to bolt & in winter it produces exceptionally rich, dark purple leaves.
