Sylvetta – Organic Arugula Seed

Description

Sylvetta, also known as wild arugula, is an organic variety known for its peppery, slightly tangy flavor that adds a bold punch to any dish. Unlike the milder cultivated arugula, Sylvetta boasts a more intense, robust flavor, making it a popular choice for those who love strong greens.

Its unique, deeply lobed leaves make it an attractive addition to salads, sandwiches, and garnishes.
