Spinacia oleracea
Giant Winter (45 days)

Giant Winter spinach has large smooth, semi-savoyed leaves.  This spinach is an extremely cold hardy variety that makes it great for early spring sowing or later fall sowing.   Giant winter spinach will last for over a week in our frig when put in a ziploc bag with a damp paper towel.  This makes eating fresh spinach for a lazy person like myself very convenient.

 
Heirloom Spinach Varieties:  Some of the many heirloom spinach varieties are: America Heirloom spinach, Bloomsdale Long Standing Heirloom Spinach, Bloomsdale Savoy Heirloom Spinach, Giant Thick Leafed Heirloom Spinach, Viking Heirloom Spinach, Monnopa Heirloom Spinach, Strawberry Heirloom Spinach, New Zealand Heirloom Spinach, Viroflay Heirloom Spinach, Giant Noble Heirloom Spinach, Gigante d'Inverno Heirloom Spinach, Merlo Nero Heirloom Spinach, Monstrueux De Viroflay Heirloom Spinach, and Red Malabar Heirloom Spinach (not a true spinach).
