The edible leaves are characterized by a distinctive spicy flavor similar to other mixed salad greens. It is a low growing, 8 to 24 inches, herbaceous annual with green, deeply cut, compound leaves. Plants grow densely and develop white or yellowish blossoms with deep violet or reddish veins. Native to the Mediterranean region, it grows wild throughout southern Europe.Seeds can be sown directly into garden when soil is warm.
