Upright plants hold leaves well above the ground. Tyee Spinach is bolt-resistant. 37 DAYS.

If you’ve never liked spinach, chances are you haven’t eaten it fresh from the garden. Garden-grown spinach is mild, tender and totally delicious! Use it in salads or stem lightly just to wilt. Either way, spinach supplies you with plenty of vision-enhanced vitamin A.

Best Spinach We've Found!
Reviewed By: DawnT (Huntingdon, PA)
We were first time spinach growers and this type did very well in hot weather. Delicious leaves stayed fresh for weeks in the frig after picking. Tried different kinds but it wouldn't even come up. We learned our lesson...we'll stick with Tyee Spinach.
