This Asian green has a Japanese name that could be written ‘snow, vegetable’ or ‘fortune, endure.’ The auspicious tatsoi look-alike can survive those early fall freezes. Grows in rosettes like Tatsoi, but bigger, more upright at 16" and with less shiny and more puckered leaves. Harvest young as a mild salad green or when mature for braising. The thick deep green spoon-shaped leaves are borne on pale green stems. Vigorous, easy to grow and quite oishi
