Spinach New Zealand

Latin name: Tetragonia expansa

New Zealand spinach, scientifically known as Tetragonia expansa, is a delightful addition to any garden, especially for those who appreciate the unique tastes of leafy greens. This versatile plant thrives in warm weather and can be harvested within 50–70 days of sowing.

The leaves are fleshy and thick with a spinach-like flavor, making them perfect for salads, stir-fries, or as a nutritious addition to smoothies.
