{"product_id":"col-m6p-spi-monx1","title":"Spinach 'Monza' (Spinacia oleracea) – Cut-and-Come-Again Salad Crop (12 Plants in 2 x 6-Cell Trays)","description":"\u003cp\u003eSpinach 'Monza' is a fast-growing, cool-season salad vegetable with dark green, tender leaves and a reliable cropping habit. It is one of the most popular spinach varieties for home growers, and it does well in raised beds, containers, grow bags, window boxes and balcony gardens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou get 12 young plants, growing one to a cell in 2 plastic 6-cell trays. They are ready to plant straight out into their final position or a container. As a cut-and-come-again crop, spinach keeps producing if you harvest the outer leaves regularly. Sow or plant in spring and autumn for a long picking season, and plant a few at a time for a steady supply of fresh leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe leaves are good fresh in salads, wilted in stir fries, added to soups, blended into smoothies or used as a base for cooked dishes. Spinach is not reliably hardy, so a winter crop needs a cloche or fleece to come through. It also runs to seed quickly in hot, dry weather, so keep the soil consistently moist, give it a little shade in summer and avoid planting in periods of extreme heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCultural Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spinach 'Monza', Monza Spinach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spinacia oleracea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully Grown Height:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 20-30cm tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compact, upright, leafy annual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Raised beds, containers, grow bags, window boxes, balcony gardens, kitchen gardens and allotments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark green, smooth, tender leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Position:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun to partial shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moist, well-drained, fertile soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not reliably hardy.
