Persian Cress - Lepidium sativium

Airy, but robust branches filled with small seed capsules that resemble silver-green coins, after blooming with small white flowers.

Sow indoors 4-6 weeks before planting out and risk of frost is over.
Can also be direct sown when the soil has warmed up and the weather has become warmer.

Grow in batches for harvest throughout the summer.

Harvest to use as a filler in a bouquet when seed pods have formed.
Great for drying.
