| Good grower. Good germination. I am not a fan of the taste of Arugula in general. |

| This variety of greens, supplied by Baker Creek, was excellent planted in both spring and later summer. The taste is very interesting, with a slight, basil-type flavor; especially good if used early. Once into our warm summer, the remaining plants bolted. We replanted in August, and again had very good results. |

| This is a fast, reliable and easy to grow green. People describe it as "spicy" but I think "bitter" is closer to the mark. I still enjoy it in small quantities and it's a great spring green, better in cooler weather than in hot. Flea beetles are the biggest pest, so plant it early and keep it under row covers. Once it is ready it really doesn't hold, so don't plant too much. It's much better to keep succession planting it. If it gets to old, just let it go to seed. You shouldn't have to buy this more than once. |

| The most unstoppable lettuce I\'ve seen. Takes drought, cold, heat, sun, shade, and just about any form of neglect or abuse. I like to plant this for my summer lettuce, I haven\'t found any other lettuce that withstands full sun in a Florida summer. Hot like Wasabi! |

| I planted this in my side garden last fall for my iguana and thinned it as I needed it. After a while I forgot about it until just recently when I found it huge and about to seed. It made it through freezing temps this past winter and a drought. I was very pleased to find it, and made very quick use of it. I thinned it to the ground, and now I have new leaves coming up! Awesome! |

| Great green. I don't know which 'rocket' that I have but I love the spicey/ peppery taste, the pretty flowers and the fact that it will self sow! |

| Any arugula is a no-brainer here in South Florida if planted over the winter. The plants germinate quickly and grow pest-free (except for the very occasional leaf miner in older leaves) and yield for at least a couple of months. Young leaves are a great addition to salads, and I use older leaves much like spinach, blanching them briefly and then adding them chopped to anything from quiches to ravioli fillings. |
