Spinach – Silk spinach

Silk Spinach is a tender, fast-growing leafy green prized for its exceptionally soft, silky leaves and mild flavour. Heat-tolerant and easy to grow, it thrives in Kerala’s climate and is ready to harvest in just 3–5 weeks. Rich in iron, calcium and vitamins, its delicate leaves are perfect for thoran, curries, dals and stir-fries. Sow directly in pots, grow bags or garden beds in partial to full sun, keep the soil moist, and enjoy repeated cut-and-come-again harvests. A smooth, nutritious and rewarding green for terrace and kitchen gardens.
