Dragon Cress - Lepidium spp - Scarlet - 24-07-2022
Has anyone grown this? In my search for herbs for cut flowers I've stumbled on this one.... but I can't find seed for it?
On writing this ... I haven't looked in Jekkas herbs. So off to look!

I’ve grown Lepidium sativum (ordinary curly garden cress) in the past for foliage. That’s pretty good too.

I didn't grow enough. Definitely lacking in foliage. I enjoy picking the flowers that are all together but find if it's spread all over the garden I either forget about or don't go over there so for next year I would like to get a whole long bed of greenery. That dragon cress seems to be very popular.
