ROCKET SALAD

Rocket salad, also known as arvgula, roquette, salad rocket, salad roquette, roquette salad and tira, is a leafy green, grown as an annual. Leaves are compound and have a spicy, peppery flavor.

Arvgula is a cool season vegetable best grown during the spring and fall. Plants mature within two to three months from seeds. Warm temperatures cause plants to bolt.

Grow arvgula as you would leaf lettuce.
