Spinach BLOOMSDALE Long Standing Harvest 45 Days Cool Weather Non-GMO 500 Seeds

Description: Spinach BLOOMSDALE Long Standing Harvest in 45 Days Cool Weather Non-GMO 500 Seeds Bloomsdale Longstanding is a spinach that may very well become your favorite! The large leaves of this variety are thick, dark green, and have a crinkled texture. Slow to bolt, and taking only 45 days to mature, this is a great choice for late spring and summer plantings. In 1784, Englishman David Landreth moved to downtown Philadelphia to open the first commercial seed business in the United States. He and his brother Cuthbert developed this variety of spinach, which they named Bloomsdale Longstanding and introduced to their customers in 1826. Bloomsdale became known for withstanding temperature changes without bolting, and continues to be well loved by gardeners. In 1937, it won the prestigious AAS Award. Latin Name: Spinacia oleraceaType: Open Pollinated, Heirloom, Cool SeasonUSDA Zones: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12Planting Method: Direct SowSunlight: Full SunHeight: 12 InchesColor: Green PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS Sowing: Because Bloomsdale Longstanding spinach loves cool weather and can survive sub-zero temperatures when protected sufficiently, Bloomsdale spinach seeds should be planted as soon as the ground can be worked in spring, or after the heat of summer for a fall crop. Gardeners in regions with warmer winters will be able to grow spinach all winter long. Sow the seeds in deeply worked soil 1/2" deep and 2" apart in rows 12-18" apart, later thinning the seedlings to 4-8" apart. For a continuous crop, plant more seed every 10 days until the summer heat begins; spinach seeds go dormant above temperatures of 80-85 degrees F. Spinach loves shade, and can be planted underneath tall plants such as corn or pole beans. Growing: Because pulling weeds can disturb the roots of spinach, apply a layer of mulch. Keep the soil moist but not too wet, since an imbalance in the water supply can cause bolting. If the temperature rises above 80 degrees F, provide some sort of shade. Bloomsdale does tolerate some heat. Harvesting: Begin harvesting the spinach leaves as soon as they grow big enough for eating. If only individual leaves are being harvested, take the larger ones on the outside of the plant. Otherwise, harvest the entire plant by cutting it off at ground level; new leaves will grow. If the plant bolts and sends up a flower stalk, the leaves will be much stronger in flavor but can still be used. WE SHIP FAST &FREE!
