Rocket (Eruca sativa) is easy to grow and very tasty. The 'peppery' leaves add great flavour to salads. An excellent source of vitamin C, these leaves work well with cold meats, salads and other savoury dishes.
You can harvest these plants from May to October. They thrive best in full sunlight and like fertile and moisture retentive soil to grow to their full potential.
