Wild rocket 'Rochelle' has a good intermediate resistance for downy mildew (Hb) and is resistant to bolting.

'Rochelle' is suitable for both greenhouse as well as outdoor cultivation, and offers an excellent harvest thanks to its healthy growth. Because this strong variety hardly bolts, it can be harvested all summer long.

The thick leaves have a beautiful, dark-green colour, grow upright and have that typically spicy, somewhat nutty flavour.

Wild rocket is very popular as a garnish in numerous dishes and indispensable on pizzas, sandwiches and in salads. Looking for something different? Try a wild rocket mash! One thing is for sure: This tasteful herb has long since transcended the Italian cuisine.
