Red-Veined Sorrel Seeds

Attractive, bright green leaves with contrasting red veining. Best eaten as a baby leaf. This perennial plant is a cut-and-come-again crop, producing fresh new foliage ready for harvest with regular picking. Ornamental enough to enjoy as a herbaceous perennial towards of the front of the border, but can become invasive if left to self-seed.

  • Further Information
Latin Name: Rumex sanguineus
Height: 30cm
Spread: 30cm
Growing Info:
Best sown directly March-May. Prepare soil prior to sowing. Remove stones and weeds and rake to a fine tilth. Sow 5mm deep in rows 45cm apart. Thin the seedlings so that plants are 30cm apart once established. Water well during dry spells. Alternatively, can be grown under glass all year and used as a cut-and-come-again salad crop.
Aftercare:
Do not let the plant flower as leaves become inedible. Cut back completely and it will come back with fresh, tender leaves. Deadhead to prevent self-seeding. Divide every 3 years.
