Sorrel - Red Veined

This provides very attractive and colourful salad leaves with a sharp almost lemony zing. Its vividly coloured leaves make it an attractive choice for mixed patio containers. Traditionally used to flavour thick soups, stuffing and sauces.

Sow outdoors thinly from March to September, where they are to crop, 2.5cm deep, directly into finely-prepared, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Allow 30cm between rows. Early sowings may benefit from cloche protection. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Water well and ensure soil remains moist to prevent plants running to seed. Harvest from May to October. Harvest unthinned as baby leaves. Take a few from each plant, allowing them to regrow for two or three more pickings. Or thin to 15cm apart to produce mature leaves.
