Rocket 'Italian'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys partial sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Italian is thought of as half hardy, so protect with a row cover whenever the temperatures drop.

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 0.98 inches (2.5 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.39 inches (1.0 cm).

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Italian about 21 days before your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Italian is a half hardy plant.
