Monstrueux de Viroflay

big leaves, good plant

Didn't go well this year

The seeds I started this year had a great germination rate, but grew very unevenly. I transplanted them into the garden around the end of March in Richmond, BC. They bolted before I could get a harvest around early May after we had a warm week (only around 17-19 degrees celsius). They were in part shade. I might try again next year.

i have tried planting spinach from seed before with no luck, but this came up very nice, giving beautiful leaves. I am looking forward to seeing it grow in next few months.
