Ate yummy lettuce and rocket tonight at Anita's.
This is a rare 'Seven Year Rocket', which grows from cuttings and turns into a sprawling bush.
If you ever come across it, grab some. If you grow no other vegie, I recommend this one for all year round abundant tasty and healthy salad and sandwich greens.
It doesn't bolt as soon as the weather gets warm, like common rocket. And can even survive with little water.
The more water and shade, the more tender it is. Less water more sun, and it gets a hotter flavour. So why not grow several bushes in different spots in among your flowers.

Top tip! Thank you.
I've been struggling to grow ordinary rocket for a loooong time.
I love the photos on this page; the whole thing is such a beautiful montage.
Thanks Jennie! appreciate your comments, and glad to know you got some useful info. Hope you manage to find some of this beauty.
