Description
Spinach Banjo is an annual spinach, and thus a true spinach. This Italian variety has glossy green round leaves. Very good resistance to bolting makes Banjo well suited to Summer growing, it will also overwinter well in a polytunnel for nearly year round production. A great bunching variety.
Banjo responds well to repeat cutting making giving surprisingly large harvests from a relatively small space. Leaves can be eaten raw as baby leaf in salads, larger leaves can be steamed or included it quiches or lasagne as you would with annual spinach.
