Perpetual Spinach is a leafy beet variety that delivers a steady crop of tender, mild-tasting greens. Easy to grow, bolt-resistant, and great for repeat harvesting.
[50–60 days] Despite the name, Perpetual Spinach isn’t spinach at all—but a variety of leafy beet that produces a near-continuous supply of tender green leaves for months on end. A reliable, bolt-resistant crop, it’s ideal for UK gardeners looking for an easy, productive green that keeps on giving.
Perpetual Spinach has smooth, upright leaves with a mild flavour—somewhere between true spinach and chard—making it perfect for raw salads when young and a delicious addition to soups, sautés, and stews when mature. It's quick to establish and highly productive, especially when regularly harvested.
Grow it from early spring right through to autumn, and in milder areas, it may even overwinter. A great choice for new gardeners and those after low-maintenance, nutritious greens.
Height: 40cm (16"). Spread: 30cm (12").
Is Perpetual Spinach really spinach? No, it’s a type of chard (beet leaf), but it tastes very similar to spinach and is used in the same way.
How do I harvest Perpetual Spinach? Pick the outer leaves regularly and leave the centre intact—this will keep the plant growing throughout the season.
Does it do well in summer? Yes! Unlike true spinach, Perpetual Spinach is slow to bolt in warm weather, making it ideal for summer growing.
