Organic Red Malabar Spinach Seeds – 5-pack value pack from Reinsaat

Red Malabar spinach from REINSAAT is a fascinating climbing plant that not only makes a real statement in your garden but also impresses with its flavour. This attractive plant is characterised by its decorative purple flowers and fleshy leaves, which taste reminiscent of young sweetcorn cobs. Ideal for creative cooking, Malabar spinach is perfect in leafy salads or can be prepared by steaming, just like traditional spinach. It is best grown in a warm, sunny spot, as this plant requires plenty of warmth and is sensitive to frost. In the Central European climate, it is therefore advisable to start the seeds indoors and transplant them outdoors after the last frosts. You can germinate the seeds in pots or in a greenhouse before moving them to the garden or balcony. Make sure to keep the soil moist at all times, but not too wet – this will encourage healthy growth. The leaves of Malabar spinach can be used in a wide variety of dishes. Whether in a fresh salad, as a healthy side dish with grilled meat or simply as a steamed vegetable accompaniment – the flavour will win you over. Malabar spinach is also an excellent choice for a sustainable diet, as it is grown without genetic modification and is rich in nutrients. Harvesting usually begins after around 60 to 80 days, once the leaves have reached a considerable size. You can harvest the leaves regularly to encourage further growth. The purple flowers are not only a delight to look at, but also a wonderful addition to edible flower arrangements. Bring a versatile and tasty plant into your garden with REINSAAT’s red Malabar spinach and enrich your cooking with new, fresh ideas.
