25 Orach Purple spinach/Atriplex hortensis seed.  Alaska Grown!

Description: 25 Purple spinach seed. Orach is easier to grow than regular spinach and is a colorful addition to any garden. Super easy to grow it will self seed in just about any growing condition or climate. The plant itself is an annual but I have not needed any special measures in my yard for this plant to be perennial via self seeding. Medicinal and nutritious salad "green". This will attain heights of six feet in garden. Best when young but you can pick leaves all summer for salad additions. Picking leaves and flowers prevents plant from producing seed if you are concerned with the plant becoming perennial. Orach has been cultivated by man for thousands of years and may have been one of the first vegetables to be formally cultivated. Some of the health benefits of orach include its ability to regulate digestion, improve kidney health, boost cardiovascular strength, strengthen the immune system, and detoxify the blood. Grown in bulk it can also be used for animal forage or chicken feed. It is an especially ideal goat feed as goats prefer food that is off the ground. The plant in its later stages develops a fibrous stalk that will remain upright even into winter . Very easy to dry via hanging. In the fall Mature plants will also produce a 'grain' that falls from the plant when dry. Tolerant of poor and even salty soils. Drought tolerant. This plant probably more than anything I grow has been admired by passer by over the years. It is almost impossible to really photograph the deep beautiful purple hues the plant is capable of producing. Great plant for a true off grid survival garden. It will grow with no issues in a grid down scenario. I offer combined shipping on this item and most items I sell. Just add all items to your cart and then check out.
