The orache: Good to eat and for decoration!

Discover the Secrets of Red Amaranth 🌿! Easily replace your spinach with this leafy vegetable that’s simple to grow and can be sown just like spinach. It often grows spontaneously and can be harvested from spring until the first frost. Plus, it makes a lovely decorative plant! If your spinach bolts before the leaves fully develop, why not give red orach a try? In this video, we introduce you to red orach, or Atriplex hortensis, a stylish and practical alternative to spinach. These plants belong to the same family as spinach, the Chenopodiaceae, and can add an interesting variety to your vegetable garden. The red orache has made its home in my garden without me even planting it last year. It's a perennial plant, even though it's technically an annual and not frost-resistant. This trait allows it to grow spontaneously in various spots, ensuring it multiplies from one season to the next. It's a good idea to always have at least one red orache plant to encourage this self-propagation. Here's how to effectively sow red orache: the seeds, which are often spread by goldfinches or ants, can also come from your compost. To sow them, follow the same method as for spinach: create a furrow, water it well, and then scatter your seeds. Let's talk about the properties of red orache. It has the same culinary benefits as spinach, but with one key advantage: you can start harvesting its leaves from March all the way until the first frost. By re-sowing, you can enjoy a continuous supply of these vibrant red leaves, which are perfect for salads or even as ornamental plants due to their attractive appearance. Join us in exploring the fascinating world of red orach and discover how it can enhance and enrich your garden, providing a sustainable and beautiful alternative to traditional spinach. ====================================== For over 90 years, Rustica magazine has been offering tips on how to enjoy country living, cultivate your garden, and embrace a green lifestyle, even in urban areas!
