Turkish Rocket (Brunias orientalis)

Description

Young florets can be harvested and cooked like a broccoli raab, although the flavor is more reminiscent of a cabbage and the leaves can be eaten as well. Turkish Rocket has a vibrant, rich green color and an incredible vegetative vigor. Enjoys full sun, seems to tolerate part shade, and could care less about soil quality. Grows to 2-3 feet.
