DamavandPro Garden Cress Seeds (Lepidium sativum) Broad leaved

From DamavandPro, these Garden Cress seeds (Lepidium sativum) are a broad-leaf variety chosen for their fresh, strong flavour and spicier taste. Growing slightly slower than common garden cress, they’re well suited to sowing little and often, so you can enjoy a steady supply of young leaves and sprouts for salads, crudités and simple garnishes.

Easy to grow and quick to germinate, garden cress is a rewarding option for indoor growing year-round or for outdoor sowing from March to October. With the right conditions, sprouts can be ready to eat in just one week, making it a practical choice for adding a lively, peppery note to everyday meals.
