Description
West Coast Seeds Arugula - Astro Organic is certified organic arugula seeds for cool season salad greens, including tender baby greens with a milder flavour.
Astro is known for producing leaves that are less lobed and more strap-like, giving your harvest a clean, modern arugula look in mixes. This variety is described as having good cool weather growth, which helps keep the leaf quality consistent when temperatures dip. It is also noted as very cold hardy, making it well suited to extended cool-season growing. If space is limited, it’s also described as nice in containers, so it fits patios, small gardens, and balcony setups. The seed type is open pollinated for gardeners who prefer classic, straightforward seed-grown crops.
In the kitchen, arugula is valued for a nutty, spicy taste that can read as pungent or peppery. Astro keeps that familiar arugula character while staying mild in cool weather, which makes it easy to use across everyday meals. The leaves are a natural fit for salads, sandwiches, and even pizza when you want a fresh, lively finish without overpowering the rest of the dish.
This variety is also described as well suited to micro-green growing, offering a tender bite with strong flavour that still feels delicate on the palate. For shoppers looking for a reliable, certified organic arugula option with baby greens appeal, Astro Organic keeps the focus on flavour, leaf quality, and cool-season performance.
