Stock, Nami No Mai

This single- stemmed, early- blooming variety produces a single stalk that is smothered in deliciously fragrant blooms. Plants reach about 34 inches tall and are excellent for arranging or use the edible flowers in salads and other recipes. Stock is a charming cousin of the cabbage and their blooms have a delicious clove like scent and flavor. This cheerful flower is wildly popular in Japan for ikebana, the art of floral arrangement.
