A Styrian traditional salad with reddish‑brown rimmed, delicate leaves that copes especially well with cold. You can plant it already in early spring or even for overwintering in autumn and harvest accordingly early. Robust, low‑maintenance and in Austria a real classic at every market stall.
You will find it mild and buttery with a slight sweetness, almost no bitterness. The soft leaves are suitable for classic salads with pumpkin seed oil dressing.
