Arugula is native to the Mediterranean region, growing wild throughout southern Europe. It's a member of the mustard family, with a robust, peppery flavor like horseradish. Arugula is often added to mixed salad greens and soups.
Arugula leaves are dark green and lobed, growing in a loosely open head. Sow in succession for a continous harvest. Pick the leaves at 2-3" long.
