HERB Komi Shungiku EDIBLE CHRYSANTHEMUM,

Chrysanthemum coronarium 

Seeds per pack ~ 180-200

Germination: 75% (Packed for 2023)  

Also known as edible leaf or garland chrysanthemum, this deeply serrated leaf Shungiku from Adaptive Seeds has long stems and mild flavor. Usually cultivated similarly to broccoli raab and harvested in bunches. With its delicious mild floral flavor, shungiku is something between an herb and a vegetable; add it to stir fry, beans, omelets, soups – just about anything. Smaller leaves make a good all-weather salad green. Frost-resistant to some degree, its quality is best during cool weather. Added bonus: pretty pale yellow daisy-like flowers that beneficial insects love.
