This mustard has large green leaves with wavy edges and a fun wasabi-like bite. Easy to grow, this mustard is also cold hardy and vigorous. Don't be mistaken, this is not the actual Japanese wasabi plant, but a great mustard to use fresh in spring rolls, on sandwiches, in stir fry, or traditional mustard-green dishes. Try it at the microgreen stage (7 to 14 days) for a zing on sandwiches or in salads.
Pollination occurs by insect, bird, wind, humans, or other natural mechanisms. Because there are no restrictions on the flow of pollen between individuals, open-pollinated plants are more genetically diverse. However, as long as pollen is not shared between different varieties within the same species, then the seed produced will remain true-to-type year after year.
This variety has a history of being passed down within a family or community, similar to the generational sharing of certain items like jewelry or furniture.
