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

Experience the rich flavor and productivity of Viroflay Spinach Seeds, a classic French heirloom non-GMO variety celebrated for its giant, tender leaves and mild, sweet taste. Known for producing leaves up to 10 inches long, Viroflay delivers abundant harvests for both baby spinach and mature greens—making it a favorite among home gardeners seeking flavor, yield, and reliability.

Giant Heirloom with Sweet, Tender Leaves:
Viroflay is prized for its smooth, deep-green foliage and quick growth. The leaves are perfect for fresh salads, smoothies, sautés, and soups—or freeze them for long-term storage. Harvest early for delicate baby spinach or allow full maturity for large, hearty greens that hold their texture well when cooked.

Fast-Growing and Versatile:

  • Ready for baby greens in just a few weeks
  • Matures quickly for full-sized spinach harvests
  • Performs beautifully in garden beds, raised planters, or containers
  • Excellent for hydroponic or indoor growing under lights
  • Perfect for succession planting to ensure a continuous harvest

Cold-Hardy and Shade-Tolerant:
A dependable cool-weather crop, Viroflay spinach thrives in spring and fall gardens and performs well in mild winter climates. It tolerates light frosts and partial shade, helping to prevent premature bolting during warmer months. Adaptable across most USDA growing zones, it’s a reliable option from northern to southern regions.

How to Grow Viroflay Spinach:

  • When to Plant: Sow directly outdoors in early spring or late summer
  • Light: Partial to full sun; provide shade in hot climates
  • Soil: Well-drained, fertile soil with consistent moisture
  • Depth: Plant ½ inch deep; thin seedlings to 3–4 inches apart
  • Watering: Keep soil evenly moist to encourage rapid growth
  • Harvest: Baby leaves in 25–30 days; full maturity in 45–55 days

Succession planting every few weeks ensures a steady supply of fresh greens through multiple seasons.

Why Gardeners Love Viroflay Spinach:

  • Giant heirloom variety with large, sweet, tender leaves
  • Fast-growing and highly productive
  • Cold-hardy and shade-tolerant for longer harvests
  • Adaptable for indoor or outdoor growing
  • Non-GMO, open-pollinated, and untreated seeds
  • Backed by a family-owned U.S. seed company committed to quality

Reliable, Nutritious, and Easy to Grow:
Whether you’re a first-time gardener or an experienced grower, Viroflay spinach offers dependable yields and excellent flavor with minimal care. It’s a versatile staple for self-reliant gardening and a consistent source of fresh, nutrient-dense greens for your kitchen.
