{"product_id":"arugula-astro","title":"Arugula, 'Astro'","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e(Eruca sativa) \u003c\/em\u003eAstro is an arugula selected for a less deeply lobed (strap leaf) leaf shape and mild flavor. This variety is exceptionally vigorous, quick to germinate, and ready to cut as a baby leaf in just 3 weeks! We grow a lot of arugula at our farm and love Astro for its lush green color, tender texture, and nice mild (for arugula) flavor. We feel as though this is the best and most vigorous strain available for baby leaf production. Our dear friend, the late John Navazio, shared the original stock with us almost 20 years ago, and we have been growing it ever since.\u003cbr\u003e21 days baby, 35 days mature.
