true plant power

Brazilian spinach in my garden - I love it because it is perennial so I always have it. I grow other greens, but this is a great mainstay and I eat a lot of green yum!

That looks so different to normal spinach - much more enticing than the usual.

[Mags]

So lovely wet with rain.

[Larry Steager]

Great use of light .

[Sylvia]

Almost abstract, great shot.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Pretty colors and lighting and looks refreshing with the rain.

[Suzanne]

Greens! Yum!

[Pat]

How nice to have fresh greens, they look so healthy.
Does it taste like regular spinach?

[KoalaGardens🐨]

@pattyblue yes it has a real spinach taste, but a great firm texture so it's really good to cook with.

[Taffy]

So rich and shiny looking.

[LManning (Laura)]

Looks so fresh and crisp!

[jackie edwards]

nice to have a never ending supply. does it take over or stay fairly self contained?

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Looks yummy!

[KoalaGardens🐨]

@jackies365 surprisingly it stays quite contained, just a couple of feet in diameter and has been there for about 3 years now so it's perfect

[KoalaGardens🐨]

@ljmanning yes! it has a crisper texture than most spinach, so it holds up better in cooking, I often throw it in a dry frying pan with fresh mushrooms and it holds body

[Bill]

Very pretty plant. Hope it tastes as good as it looks.

[Joanne Diochon]

Very fresh looking and also very different and much more glossy than regular spinach.

[Shutterbug]

Beautiful. I have never seen this. Do you order seeds to grow it?

[Diana]

It seems to have a different consistency, it sure looks good.

[KoalaGardens🐨]

@shutterbug49 I'm not sure, I guess you can though. One of my daughters gave me a cutting from hers. You could check if your local nursery stocks it in a pot or else look for seed. this one is Alternanthera sissoo

[Dawn]
