What Makes Survival Garden Seeds Different - non-GMO heirloom seeds

Arugula Seeds from Survival Garden Seeds offer a fast-growing, nutrient-packed leafy green that brings bold, peppery flavor to salads, sandwiches, and cooked dishes. As a cool-season cruciferous vegetable, arugula thrives in spring and fall, yet it can also be grown indoors during hot weather for a steady supply of fresh greens. Compact and productive, it performs well in containers, raised beds, or small garden spaces, making it an excellent choice for gardeners seeking quick, reliable harvests.

Spicy, Flavorful Greens for Everyday Meals:
Arugula delivers a distinctive spicy-bitter bite that elevates simple salads and pairs beautifully with citrus, cheeses, pastas, and roasted vegetables. It is a nutritional powerhouse rich in vitamins and beneficial plant compounds, offering both flavor and wellness value in every handful.

Fast-Growing and Easy to Cultivate:
This quick-maturing leafy green is ideal for gardeners who appreciate fast results. Arugula grows best in cool weather but can be sown indoors or in shaded outdoor areas during the heat of summer. Regular sowing every few weeks ensures a continuous harvest of tender young leaves throughout the year.

Why Customers Love Arugula:

  • Bold, spicy flavor perfect for salads and fresh dishes
  • Fast-growing plants ready for quick harvests
  • Thrives in cool weather and adapts well to indoor growing
  • High in vitamins and nutrients for healthy homegrown meals
  • Ideal for containers, raised beds, or small garden spaces

How to Grow:
Sow seeds directly into well-drained soil in early spring or fall. Provide full sun to partial shade, especially during warmer months. Keep soil consistently moist to encourage tender leaf production. Harvest young leaves regularly to promote new growth, or allow plants to mature for a stronger, more peppery flavor. For year-round greens, grow indoors in bright light or under grow lights.
