Corn Salad (Valerianella Locusta) - 100 Seeds

Corn salad, also called Mache, is a tender leafy green that grows best in cool weather. It's one of the first vegetables to grow in the spring, which makes it a welcome sight. Although mache grows wild in many areas and has its share of common names, including lamb's lettuce and field lettuce, there are several mache varieties with larger leaves and sweeter flavors that have been bred for backyard gardens.
