About This Plant
Tatsoi is one of the most beautiful and practical greens you can grow, and the Rosette variety shows the plant at its most elegant. The dark, glossy, spoon-shaped leaves radiate outward from the center in a flat, symmetrical rosette that can spread up to 12 inches wide. Tatsoi is cold hardy down to 20 degrees Fahrenheit, making it one of the hardiest greens available and an excellent choice for extending the harvest season well into winter on the Oregon coast.
The flavor is mild and slightly nutty with the faintest mustardy whisper, less assertive than bok choy and very approachable raw or cooked. Young rosette leaves add a beautiful visual element to salads. Cooked briefly in stir-fries or soups, the stems stay tender and slightly sweet while the leaves wilt into silkiness.
Tatsoi is a reliable performer in the coastal Pacific Northwest. It matures in 30 to 45 days and holds well in the garden without bolting quickly.
