Description

Spinach - Bloomsdale - Spinacia oleracea

Hardy Annual Heirloom. This large, spreading spinach has deep-green, curled leaves. It's a good yielding, dependable home garden variety that is fairly resistant to bolting. Spinach is delicious steamed, fresh in salads, and in soups and casseroles.

Did You Know? Low in calories, spinach has high amounts of vitamins A and C, and iron.

Soil & Water: Spinach prefers loose, well-drained soil with moderate nutrients enriched with plenty of added organic matter. Soil pH preference is 6.5-7.5.

Planting & Growing: In spring, start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost, and set out 3-6 weeks before the last frost date. Spinach prefers cool weather and can handle light frosts. For a fall crop, sow seeds in a protected area 8 weeks before the first frost. Bloomsdale will tolerate temperatures down to 15-20°F. Cover with a floating row cover or a frost blanket to increase cold tolerance.

Harvesting & Storage: Treat spinach as a cut-and-come again plant, or harvest outside leaves individually. Use fresh, freeze, or can.
