Red Tatsoi / Red Rosette Bok Choy

Botanical Name: Brassica rapa (Rosette Group)

Red Tatsoi is a vibrant twist on the traditional green tatsoi, featuring deep red to purple spoon-shaped leaves with a mild, mustardy flavor. This beautiful Asian green forms a compact, low-growing rosette and is ideal for salads, stir-fries, soups, or garnishes. Both tender and nutritious, it’s high in vitamins A, C, and calcium.

🌟 Why Grow Red Tatsoi?
✔️ Striking Color – Adds visual appeal to dishes and garden beds
✔️ Cold-Hardy – Thrives in cooler seasons and tolerates light frost
✔️ Fast-Growing – Ready to harvest in as little as 25–45 days
✔️ Mild Flavor – Tastes like a cross between spinach and mustard greens
✔️ Cut-and-Come-Again – Great for continuous harvesting

🪴 Growing Conditions:

  • Climate: Prefers cool to mild temperatures (45°F–75°F / 7°C–24°C); perfect for spring and fall planting.
  • Light Requirements: Grows well in full sun to partial shade—partial shade is ideal in warmer climates.
  • Watering: Keep soil consistently moist for tender leaves; avoid drying out.
  • Soil: Rich, well-drained soil with plenty of organic matter and a pH of 6.0–7.5.
  • Spacing: Space plants 6–8 inches apart in rows 12 inches apart; can be grown densely for baby greens.
  • Harvesting: Harvest individual leaves when young or cut the whole rosette at the base. Frequent picking encourages regrowth.

🌿 Pro Tip: Red pigmentation deepens in cooler weather—plant in late summer for vibrant fall color and sweet flavor.

Grow Red Tatsoi for a pop of color, flavor, and nutrition—perfect for gourmet gardens and chefs who love eye-catching greens! 🥬🔴
