Chinese Pak Choy<br />

Mizuna Lime Streaks and Red Streaks<br />

Oriental Greens<br />

200 seeds per packet. Various crops are offered<br />

here—all are traditional culinary types from<br />

Asia. Bok choy and Tatsoi are turnip relatives<br />

grown for their spatulate leaves and succulent<br />

petioles (stems) which are often white and very<br />

juicy. Mustards are grown for their thinner,<br />

often spicy leaves. Chinese cabbages and kale<br />

form tight heads, but of often quite unusual<br />

shapes compared to the usual Western ones.<br />

As a group, these types tend to be fairly early<br />

and tolerant to cooler weather.<br />
