Sylvetta Arugula

Diplotaxis tenuifolia, commonly known as Sylvetta arugula, is a peppery wild variety with delicate, deeply serrated leaves. More robust and spicier than mild salad arugula, this slow-maturing cultivar delivers bold flavor perfect for salads, pizza toppings, and garnishes. For optimal taste, sow in spring or late summer through fall; hot weather intensifies heat and encourages bolting. The tiny seeds require careful, measured planting to avoid oversowing.  Harvest young leaves for tender texture, or allow plants to mature for more pronounced peppery notes. A gourmet choice for adventurous growers seeking authentic, complex arugula flavor.
