Lepidium
Lepidium Green Dragon is a new introduction from Danziger. It looks like some other available pepper cress varieties, but it can get very tall! These large arching stems are a joy for designers to work with. It adds an airy fresh texture to bouquets. This product has become quite popular in Europe and we are happy to offer it to you!
The plugs are deliberately double or triple sown. Plant them as a clump at 6-9" of spacing. Support netting is helpful.
Lepidum likes to be planted in the cooler part of the year. I suspect it is frost hardy, but we do not have hardiness data at this time.
You harvest the seed heads of Lepidium so wait until after the little white flowers have gone by and the small disc shaped seeds form before cutting.
Application of Giberellic Acid at key points in the production cycle can increase height. Consult the cultural documents from Danizger here.
Grown in a 128 tray, billed as a 125.
Order 6 or more weeks in advance of desired ship date.

About Tray Sizes
210 and 125 cell trays are full-sized trays, and three of these will fit in a shipping box.
50 cell trays are half-sized trays (unless otherwise noted) and two of these are the equivelent of one full sized tray. Six of these will fit in a shipping box.
18 and 32 cell trays are full sized trays specifically for our vernalized perennials. These have their own set of shipping rules (find details HERE) and cannot be combined with items grown in 210, 125, or 50 cell trays.
