Orache Red Spire Aprx 50 seeds ■●
Atriplex hortensis or Orach is a bright red leafy annual grown much like spinach. It tolerates moderate frosts so a first April sowing in the UK is possible. Sow every three or four weeks to insure a continuous supply of young, tender leaves, easier to grow than spinach and a great annual for the edible flower bed with 6ft tall deep red to purple foliage.
