About this item
- MATURE SIZE & CARE GUIDE: Okinawa Spinach (Gynura crepioides) reaches an average height of 1 foot at maturity, thriving in USDA Hardiness Zones 8b-11. It prefers full to part sun exposure and requires moderate watering for best results. This hardy, heat-tolerant plant is an excellent ground cover but may die back in cold temperatures, returning when warmth resumes.
- SIZE UPON ARRIVAL: Your new Okinawa Spinach plant arrives as a 3-8 inch young starter in a 3-inch pot, ready to grow under your care. Nurture it in your preferred space—whether indoors or outdoors—and watch it mature into a flavorful, versatile addition to your garden.
- FLAVOR & USES: Bring fresh, zesty greens to your kitchen with Okinawa Spinach! This plant offers a spicy, lemon-pepper flavor that complements salads and stir-fries. Not a true spinach, but an ideal substitute, adding bright, bold taste and texture to your dishes with every bite.
- DISTINCTIVE APPEARANCE: The plant's unique leaves are dark green on top and iridescent purple underneath, measuring 1.5-3 inches in length. Its vibrant colors and compact growth make it a standout addition to gardens, patios, and even indoor spaces, adding beauty along with edibility.
- IDEAL FOR GARDENS: Okinawa Spinach doubles as both an attractive ground cover and a tasty vegetable plant. Known for its toughness in subtropical climates, this plant flourishes in high heat, creating a lush, edible landscape in your yard or garden.
