| this was quick growing and delicious. Plants stayed crisp and tasy through midsummer heat. I planted it between endive and lettuces in the back of garden where it was a little shady. I had an intriguing addition to salads all season long. Seeds spread between the cut plants in the same bad germinated quickly. this is my first and only cress, so not sure how to rate it. I was pleased with the production. A little watercress on my cucumber or tomato sandwiches was a great treat. I will find room for this every year. |
