Bloomsdale Savoy Spinach #139

Bloomsdale spinach, a luscious, dark green, leafy vegetable, is celebrated for its crinkly, succulent leaves and superb flavor—sweet yet slightly earthy. Rich in vitamins A, C, K, iron, and antioxidants, it's a powerhouse of nutrition. This heirloom variety thrives in cooler climates, making it perfect for early spring or fall gardens. To grow Bloomsdale spinach, select a site with full sun to partial shade and well-draining soil. Plant seeds ½ inch deep and 2-3 inches apart in rows, maintaining soil moisture without overwatering. It prefers cooler temperatures, between 40°F and 75°F, for optimal growth. Thin seedlings to 4-6 inches apart once they're established. Regularly harvesting the outer leaves encourages continuous production. Mulch to retain soil moisture and control weeds. Bloomsdale is somewhat resistant to bolting in warm temperatures but monitoring for pests and diseases is crucial for a healthy crop. This variety's robust texture and rich taste make it versatile in the kitchen, from fresh salads to sautéed dishes.
