Mr Fothergills Herb Rocket Apollo 500 Seeds

Rocket – Apollo

This superb selection has large, rounded, tender leaves with an excellent peppery taste, but no bitterness – a perfect addition to salads.

Sow outdoors thinly, from March to September, where they are to crop, 2.5cm deep, directly into finely-prepared, fertile, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Allow 25cm between rows. Seedlings usually appear in 7-21 days. Keep moist. Harvest unthinned as baby leaves, or thin to 10cm apart for mature plants. Or, sow indoors, from October to March, to grow in a tunnel or greenhouse. Sow into cells in trays of compost in gentle warmth. Transplant to borders or large pots when approx. 7.5cm tall. Keep moist. Harvest all year round.
