Rocket Wild
£1.95 Average 1000 seedsAnother Italian Classic. Rocket is delicious raw, or wilted over pasta or pizza.
It's very easy to grow. You can cut all the leaves off and it'll keep resprouting for up to 3 months.
It's best to wait until July before you sow rocket, otherwise it will attract flea beetles, which will fill your leaves full of holes. You can sow earlier, cover with netting, but it's a bit of a faff. Sow direct on plots, or use containers on patios.
Growing Equipment: Grow beds or dutch trugs are perfect for a patio.
