Our range of leaf vegetables. Grown for their edible foliage, these vegetable garden crops are perfect for salads, stews, or cooked dishes. They grow quickly and can be harvested over several weeks. Lettuces, like the tender and crisp ‘Reine de Mai’, come in Batavia, Romaine, or Oakleaf varieties. Mesclun, a mix of young shoots, allows for quick and continuous harvests. Spinach can be sown almost all year round and offers dark green foliage, rich in minerals. Kale, very hardy, withstands frost and provides highly nutritious young curly leaves. Chard or Swiss chard brighten up the vegetable garden with their colourful stems. It is cultivated in summer and autumn, for a staggered harvest.
Leaf vegetables prefer cool, humus-rich soil and a non-scorching exposure. Water regularly to prevent bolting.
