Malabar Spinach: Beautiful and Tasty |
|
|
Let's face it—as much as you love your home-grown veggies, produce just isn't as pretty as perennials. But what if it were?
Malabar spinach is a beautiful deep-green vine that will catch the attention of even those who don't cook. Originally from India, where it's a perennial vine that grows up to 30 feet long, malabar spinach is mostly grown as an annual in the United States and Canada.
It's not a true spinach, but the taste is similar. Because it grows upward on a trellis, it won't take up much room in your garden. And best of all, it thrives during the hot summer months when true spinach tends to bolt.
