Herb Wild Rocket Seeds
An alternative to the usual Rocket, these seeds will provide a plant with deep green, serrated foliage that makes an attractive garnish. Wild Rocket has a stronger flavour than standard Rocket, and the young leaves can be picked in succession and are perfect for salads. Easy to grow, these seeds will eventually reach a height of 15-20cm. Sow these from April to July and spread thinly, 1cm deep in drills 30cm apart in soil that has been raked to a fine tilth. When large enough to handle, thin the seedlings to 23-30cm apart. Harvest young leaves as required, picking only a few from each plant ensuring you don’t weaken the plant. Prefers moist, well drained soil in full sun.
