The leaves of Malabar Red Spinach, sometimes referred to as Ceylon or Malabar spinach, resemble spinach even though they are not the same plant. Actually a native of tropical Asia, this climbing vine boasts wonderfully dark red/purple stems with succulent, juicy, and highly nutritious leaves that can also be grown as baby leaves. Since it's a delicate perennial, it's best to treat it like one.
Growing instructions:
Sow the Malabar Spinach Red Ceylon Spinach from to February to April. Thinly sow seeds into trays (2cm deep). Germination usually takes 10-14 days and once the seedlings have germinated and have grown 10-15cm tall, transplant the seeds or spread the plants 30-50cm apart. Water plants thoroughly after planting especially during warm summer days. Harvest from June onwards.
