Tyee Spinach is an early maturing annual known for its large, semi-savoyed dark green foliage that is ready for harvest in 40 days. The crisp edible foliage has a rich sweet flavor with earthy undertones if harvested before bolting. Grows best in moist, rich well-drained soils. Tyee is the slowest spinach to bolt, and has improved disease resistance.
