Well, the Malabar spinach grew like crazy for me! I had two tomato cages and planted four seeds around the base of each one. They were very attractive plants that easily filled up each tomato cage, jumped to the nearby fence and then soared out a couple of feet into the air.

For some reason that year I just wasn't in the mood to experiment with it. Once I found out that I didn't like it fresh, (strange texture) I meant to try it sauteed, but for some reason, never did. I think that might be the ticket for this green. That or to add color and thickness to soups.
