New Zealand Spinach is a heat-tolerant leafy green prized for its ability to thrive when true spinach struggles. This vigorous, trailing plant produces thick, succulent leaves with a mild, slightly salty flavour that can be enjoyed fresh or cooked. Ideal for summer harvests, New Zealand Spinach is excellent in salads, stir-fries, and sautés, and continues producing through hot weather with regular picking.

*Succulent Leaves – Thick, tender foliage with a mild, pleasant flavour.
*Continuous Harvest – Regular cutting encourages ongoing leaf production.
*Easy to Grow – Well suited to garden beds, raised beds, and containers.

Each packet contains approximately 30 seeds.

For best results, start New Zealand Spinach seeds indoors 4–6 weeks before your last frost date, or direct-seed outdoors once the risk of frost has passed and soil has warmed.

Soak seeds in warm water for 12–24 hours before sowing to improve germination. Sow seeds ½ inch (1 cm) deep and keep soil consistently moist. Germination typically occurs in 7–14 days, though it is typically erractic and cooler temperatures may slow sprouting.

After the last frost, transplant or thin seedlings to a sunny location, spacing plants 12–18 inches (30–45 cm) apart. Harvest young leaves regularly to encourage continuous growth throughout the summer.
