Rocket Wild

The most intensely flavoured salad leaf in the range. Wild Rocket produces deeply lobed, dark green leaves with a powerful, peppery, slightly nutty flavour that is far more intense than cultivated rocket — a cut-and-come-again perennial that provides leaves year-round under cover and from spring to autumn outdoors, growing back vigorously after every harvest.
