Purple Longevity Spinach, Gyunura bicolor

Okinawan spinach, is a great leafy green to grow that produces all year round! This plant is a highly ornamental, low-growing perennial, which produces an abundance of leaves and ender shoots. The yellow/orange flowers attract butterflies and the leaves are high in protein and have choleterol-lowering properties. Plants are shrubby sprawlers that attain heights of about four feet. Perfect for an edible landscape or as a weed suppressing ground cover. This purple variety seems to thrive best in deeper shade.
