RE: Delicious, beautiful Orach has sustainably self-sowed herself in our garden
It will bolt with heat like lettuce or spinach, but I find it somewhat more tolerant of heat and slower to bolt than lettuce or spinach. That said its a good spring/early summer greens for warm climates. You've purchased so many seeds from us I will be happy to send you some Orach seeds on the house so that you can save your steem for another HSCO vendor :)
Heck yeah, I'll take em! I think I planted my greens out of season, and none of it is coming up. I can't figure out salads lol
When to plant salads? I planted some in the fall and they didn't come up til spring. I planted some in spring and nada.

OK You got it! I don't have a lot of experience with Spinach other than realizing its hard to find a good bolt resistant spinach... which makes me think I need to try locally bred spinach seeds. Lettuce can technically be planted any month of the year, but in warmer months it will need extra water to keep it from getting bitter. Lettuce and spinach can tolerate light frost and so you can seed or transplant them fairly early in the season.
