Mustard Spinach ‘Tendergreen’ (Brassica juncea) is a fast-growing leafy green prized for its smooth, oval leaves and mild, slightly peppery flavor. More tender and less pungent than traditional mustard greens, it is excellent for fresh salads, light sautés, and stir-fries. Thriving in cool-season conditions, this productive variety matures quickly and performs well in both garden beds and containers.
