Red Malabar Spinach Seeds
A heat-loving climbing green with glossy leaves and vivid red-purple stems. Red Malabar Spinach keeps producing through summer when cool-season greens slow down.
In The Kitchen
Use young leaves and tender stems in stir-fries, curries, soups, omelettes, and noodle dishes. The leaves soften like spinach while keeping a satisfying succulent texture.
Growing Notes
- Start indoors or sow after the soil is warm.
- Give the vine a trellis or sturdy support.
- Grow in full sun and keep evenly watered.
- Harvest tips frequently to encourage branching.
Packet: 10+ seeds. Warm-season climbing green; needs heat to thrive.
Start indoors 8–10 weeks before last frost. Germinate at 26–30 °C on a heat mat; peppers stall below 22 °C. Pot up to 10–15 cm before hardening off outside after nights stay above 12 °C.
Feed balanced through bloom, then bump potassium for fruiting. Stake taller varieties. More detail in our full Canadian growing guide.
Match the pepper to the technique: thin-walled varieties blister fast in a hot pan; thick-walled ones roast or stuff beautifully; fruit-forward ones make balanced sauces and pickles. The variety's flavour profile is your shortcut — see Choosing the right pepper for a use-case guide.
