First recorded in the 1800s, Viroflay spinach has become the parent of many modern-day spinach varieties - and it's still popular as a garden plant or commercial crop today. The leaves are big, the texture is tender, and the flavour tends towards the sweet. The plants grow vigorously, and you can just keep cutting and coming back for more. Spinach is Popeye's favourite food, and if the cartoon character could choose, he'd opt for this variety every time

Growing Information
How to Sow
The seeds are big, so you can space them out easily when sowing direct. They can also be germinated in trays. While germinating, they should be kept moist but not constantly soggy. Reduce watering after germination.
How to Harvest
Cut the leaves to the base of the stems using some sharp scissors or secateurs. If you are not going to use the leaves immediately, stand them in water to keep them fresh or wrap them in plastic to retain moisture.
