About this item
- A True Heritage Spinach: Merlo Nero ‘Astigiano’ is a traditional alpine spinach from Piemonte, known for its deep green, beautifully crinkled leaves and exceptional flavour. Italians have grown it for generations for authentic family cooking.
- Tender, Flavourful & Versatile Leaves: This variety produces soft, juicy leaves that are delicious eaten raw in salads or cooked with ricotta, eggs, toasted pine nuts and pasta. A staple for ravioli fillings and classic torta di spinaci.
- Reliable, Productive & Cold-Tolerant: A hardy spinach that thrives in cool weather. Ideal for spring and autumn sowing, giving you fresh leafy crops for much of the year. SEEDS: 16g Approx.
- Easy to Grow Indoors or Outdoors: Sow Spinach Merlo Nero ‘Astigiano’ directly outdoors from February–April or August–October, planting seeds 1–2cm deep in fertile, moist, well-drained soil. Grow in full sun or light shade and keep well-watered to prevent bolting. Harvest young baby leaves or allow plants to mature for full-sized, crinkled dark leaves from April–June and October–December.
- Seed Quality: Produced by a historic Italian seed house with over 240 years of excellence. Seeds are packed in protective, recyclable packets to preserve freshness and germination quality – bringing authentic Italian growing to your garden.

The package was here in Australia from England in a few days — so quick! Something was missing and they refunded it straight away. Pretty happy with these guys.
