Big Seeded Mache Corn Salad (Valerianella locusta)

The leaves can be picked off when they are 1 to 2 inches long. This old garden green, enjoyed in the late stone age, contrasts nicely with the sharp-flavored greens in salads. To harvest, simply cut off at ground level. Great for both north and south gardens. The leaves are so tender, they melt in your mouth. Buy now, to get it as soon as possible. We chose the big-seeded Mache variety because it handles spring/summer heat without getting bitter. The Mache Corn Salad Big Seeded, 'Valerianella locusta', has the mildest flavor and softest texture of any salad green. * $1.59
