Deluxe Mesclun Mix
21 days for baby leaves
40 days for braising leaves
Various Brassica species
Our go-to mesclun mix, easy to grow and abundant all season! You’ll enjoy fabulous salad less than three weeks after sowing. The diversity of colors, textures and mild, succulent flavors is a feast for the senses and she quickly re-grows for several cuttings throughout the season. We prefer to enjoy Mesclun as baby leaves for salads but we always enjoy the larger, more robustly flavored leaves with eggs for breakfast or sautéed with garlic and sesame.
Our Deluxe Mesclun Mix thrives in both garden soil as well as in containers so have fun tucking it about so you’ll have some always at arm’s length! Under hoops and floating row cover, we’re easily enjoying this mix well into November when sown in September.
