Arugula Seeds - Wild Arugula

Wild Arugula is a robust, flavorful Mediterranean green cherished for its deeply serrated leaves, intense peppery bite, and remarkable heat tolerance. Unlike standard arugula, this perennial-type variety grows more slowly but produces leaves with sharper, more complex flavor that intensifies as the plant matures. The foliage is slender and aromatic, rising in graceful clumps that can be harvested again and again for a steady supply of gourmet greens.

Wild Arugula thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, Wild Arugula excels in both spring and fall plantings and continues to produce through summer heat with far less bitterness than common arugula. Its small yellow blossoms attract beneficial pollinators and lend a delicate charm to herb gardens, kitchen plots, and market beds. Vigorous, resilient, and rich in culinary character, this heirloom green remains a favorite for chefs and home gardeners seeking bold, lasting flavor in every harvest.
