Diplotaxis tenuifolia, a biennial with narrow leaves, is a type of rocket that grows quickly and yields harvest within 15-25 days after sowing. The leaves are dark green, thin, with a light serration, imparting a bright aroma and spicy nutty-mustard flavor to dishes.
This variety is distinguished by high stress resistance and good post-harvest shelf life: the greens retain freshness up to 1.5-2.5 kg/sq.m. With proper watering, leaves remain soft and not bitter, making them ideal for salads, sandwiches, meat and fish side dishes, as well as adding to soups, stews, and pies.
Diplotaxis tenuifolia grows excellently both in open ground and in protected areas. Bushes reach a mass of up to 35 g, ensuring a dense and even planting. Due to its flavor richness and aromatic appeal, this variety is considered a high-quality product suitable for professional kitchens and home use.
