Bok Choi, 'Prize Choi'


(Brassica rapa) I can’t think of a more vigorous vegetable in the garden than Prize Choi. From a tiny mustard seed to 1.5 lbs of food in a month and a half? Come on. Prize Choi delivers mild and succulent snow-white stems contrasted against deep green leaves. Delicious, lightly sautéed in stir-fries. Our strain has been selected for several generations for upright habit, thick stems, and uniformity. Welcoming vase-like form.
45-50 days. MP

Packet: .5g (~240 seeds)

*This seed has tested negative for both Black Leg (Phoma lingam) and Black Rot (Xanthomonus campestris) as required by the WA Dept of Ag crucifer seed quarantine.
