Best spinach seeds

Spinach seeds are an easy way to grow a nutritious and tasty crop. Use the baby leaves as an alternative to lettuce in salads and the mature leaves as a green vegetable or in stir fries and soups. ‘Red Veined’ has an attractive colour to its leaves, ‘Mikado’ is an Oriental variety with pointed leaves, and Spinach ‘Perpetual’ will give you weeks of harvests. See our Frequently Asked Questions below for more advice.

‘Apollo’, ‘Mikado’, ‘Red Veined’ and ‘Patton’ spinach are all downy mildew resistant making them particularly productive.
