Leafy Greens Asian Hon Tsai Tai is an heirloom, non-GMO variety prized for its distinctive purple flower stems and buds, also known as Kailaan. This Chinese specialty offers a mild mustard flavor, making it versatile for raw salads or lightly cooked dishes like stir-fries and soups. The plant produces long, slender, red-purple stems that can be hand-harvested multiple times by snapping tender shoots 8 to 10 inches long, ensuring continuous yield. Best sown from June through October, it thrives in mild climates with harvests extending from midsummer through winter. Germination rates average 80% or higher. Packaged sustainably, these seeds reflect a commitment to environmental responsibility.
