This mustard is a star in the Southern California winter garden - if protected from bagrada bugs and snails by a net or cloth cage.
Huge leaves, crunchy and sweet. In this climate, plant in early fall through mid-winter. The plant loves weather in the high 40s through 60s and adequate moisture.

Lots of large leaves grew easily, but as the plants got older there were many problems with aphids. |
