Arctium lappa 'Burdock'

A tall biennial featuring large, wavy leaves and clusters of purple, thistle-like flowers that bloom in summer. To prevent it from spreading, harvest the flowers before they produce seeds. Known for its crisp root with a sweet, distinct flavor, this vegetable has been a staple in East Asian cuisine for centuries. Young leaves and stems are also edible, both raw and cooked. Plant in rows spaced 50cm apart in well-drained sandy soil. The roots grow large, making it unsuitable for pots. Regular watering during summer is essential, and it can withstand light frosts.
