Loading... Please wait... “Cultivated” rocket is easy to grow and adds a spicy note to salads. Scatter the seeds about 1-2cm apart and gently cover. It is at its best when it is not too hot, and harvest when the leaves are 10-15 cm long (about 40 days). Recipe: Rocket and Radicchio Salad.

Planted this 2009 and it took off like a rocket - simly dropped some seeds on the ground and raked over them lightly and then presto!
Needs a bit of care as grubs like them too. Good addition to our salads - helps lift them.

I bought a packet of these last year, and have planted a punnetful recently. The seed was very good, and germinated very quickly and grew quickly. The plants grew easily and well, and were a good addition to salads.
