Imperial Green Spinach Seeds – Most Bolt-Resistant Asian Spinach, Hybrid, 38 Days

Imperial Green Hybrid Spinach – The Gold Standard for Bolt & Disease Resistance

Imperial Green is widely recognized as the most bolt-resistant Asian spinach ever developed — and it doesn't sacrifice flavor for performance. With lush, dark green, arrow-shaped leaves held upright on long, non-flopping stems, this fast-finishing gourmet green is ready as baby leaves in just 25 days or at full maturity in 38 days. Its succulent, rich flavor is as impressive as its disease résumé.

Superior downy mildew resistance (races 1–7, 9, 11, and 13), combined with outstanding heat and bolt tolerance, means Imperial Green keeps producing through warm spring days, fluctuating fall weather, and even mild winters in warmer climates. Like all spinach, it only gets sweeter with a light frost.
