Strawberry Spinach is one of the best-kept secrets of the herb world. A native American plant, this self seeding annual sets tiny, deliciously tender leaves that can be cooked like spinach or used fresh in salads. It also sets small red fruits in late summer and autumn that taste a bit like mulberries and are lovely fresh or cooked. You can use almost the entire plant instead of just one part, and Strawberry Spinach draws out this pleasure by setting new leaves all season long. Snip off just what you need at the moment, and harvest more later! The foliage is slender, deeply lobed, and appears in rosettes along long, slender stems. The berries are edible as well. Quite small, they resemble raspberries more than strawberries. The berries arise at the base of each stem, and a plant in full fruit is a glorious sight. Grow Strawberry Spinach in full sun (direct-sowing the seeds works best) and rich, fertile soil. It reaches about 45cm high and 30cm wide, and needs no staking or supports. Easy and trouble-free, it's an exciting new addition to the herb garden, vegetable patch, or even the flowering annual flower bed.

Deep green succulent leaves for a summer long crop. Ideal for sowing in succession for a constant supply of fresh leaves. A slow bolting variety.

Plant produces attractive pinky-red stems. With a wonderfully mild sweet flavour typical of the Swiss Chards, the leaves can be picked small for salad use or left to mature. Less prone to bolting, the tall stems are suitable for both ornamental and culinary use. They are ideal for mixed salads. The thin-stemmed leaves can also be sautéed and braised. Anything you can do to spinach, you can do with chard. Worth growing for the colour alone, it can be used as an ornamental plant, growing to 40 to 50cm (16 to 20in) tall. The striking deep green leaves with pink veins are a beautiful addition to any garden.

Not a true spinach. It provides a large amount of leaves for salads and cooked greens in mid-summer. Once it is established it is vigorous and trouble-free. The flavour is better if the plants have some shade from the sun. Pick the leaves and young shoots of this trailing plant regularly to lengthen the harvest. New Zealand Spinach is perennial in mild winters. Quite difficult to germinate so the seeds need to be soaked in warm water to soften the shell and then need to be sown in a warm area for germination.

Also known as "Monstrueux de Viroflay", the monster spinach of Viroflay. Viroflay is in the parent line of many modern day hybrids. The leaves of this spinach are 10 in. long and up to 8 in. wide. They are smooth, dark green and sweet. Prefers cool weather.

It tends to grow upright at first, reaching heights of 10–150 cm (rarely to 3 m), but typically becomes recumbent after flowering (due to the weight of the foliage and seeds) unless supported by other plants. The leaves are alternate and can be varied in appearance. In India, the plant is popularly called bathua and found abundantly in the winter season. The leaves and young shoots of this plant are used in dishes such as soups, curries, and paratha-stuffed breads, especially popular in Punjab. The seeds or grains are used in phambra or laafi, gruel-type dishes in Himachal Pradesh, and in mildly alcoholic fermented beverages such as soora and ghanti.
