Grow Arugula seeds for a rich, peppery tasting leafy green that makes excellent salads. The Arugula herb is also known as rocket, salad rocket, roquette, rugula, & rucola. Roquette Arugula is generally used raw in salads, but also cooked as a vegetable with pastas or meats for a delicious taste like spinach. Four-petaled, white, purple-veined flowers top its flower stalks. Sow these herb seeds & enjoy a harvest 40 days later! Arugula performs best in spring to early summer. After that time, plant it under the shade of an airy tree (not dense shade), or under shade cloth. It is not fussy at all, although too much drought & summer heat will cause the leaves to be smaller & more peppery. SOWING Sow: April - October Sun: Full sun to partial shade Harvest: June - November Water: Medium Depth: 1/4 inch (0.25 cm) Plant spacing: 18 - 24 inches (45 - 60cm) When the seedlings are large enough to handle thin out to 10 - 12 inches (20 - 30cm) apart.
