Shanghai Green Baby Bok Choy
Certified Organic Seed
Brassica rapa
Petite, perfectly-shaped bok choy heads for spring and fall.
Baby bok choy is one of the most versatile crops of the garden. It grows exceptionally quickly; it tolerates both cold and heat; it can be sown in succession for crops nearly all season long. It is also strikingly beautiful—its swooping, vase-shaped base is a whorl of thick green petioles that soften into sweet, ambrosial flesh when cooked. Enjoy them all season: infant choys herald the start of spring; thick-petioled bunches grill beautifully in mid-summer; and toddler boks perk up in the chill of fall.

Direct sow 4 weeks before last frost, or sow under protection 8-10 weeks before last frost; continue through August. Will form baby heads at 6" spacing, but if given 12-24" you'll get much larger plants. Harvest by cutting the entire head at the base. Requires ample water and fertile soil.
