Egyptian Spinach is an annual plant that grows up to 7 feet tall. The plant blooms with very small pale yellow flowers. And has seed pods very much like okra (which it is related to) with green seeds.

The plant is used throughout Africa, and in India. In India, it is also grown for its fibre, which can be used to make sacks and Hessian cloth. In other parts of the world, such as Australia, the Philippines and Thailand, it's considered a weed.

Young leaves can be eaten fresh in a salad and are very tasty! Dried leaves can be used as thickeners in soups.


I got my first seeds here on Listia and now I have more than enough to share. This is a very interesting and versatile plant and there's a lot of information online!!
