Garden Cress- Wrinkled Crinkled
Grew really well. Harvested a few times and its still growing well. Thank you
Garden Cress- Wrinkled Crinkled
Fast growing with great flavour. It has a crisp peppery bite that is great with tuna salad or in a home made mayo. Love it.
awesome little plant
If you let this one go to seed you can use the seeds as a pepper substitute.
