Rated 5 out of 5. Ceylon Spinach. We've planted the spinach and it's happily growing. Can't wait for it to get big enough to try. Joshua Carr , March 2022.

Rated 5 out of 5. Best Herbs. I love Mudbrick Herb Cottage as they always have the hard to find herbs. They arrive quickly and well packaged and thrive once planted. I highly recommend them to anyone wanting to add to their herb garden! Warren Ziebowski , January 2024.

Ceylon Spinach

I was so impressed with how healthy all of the plants I purchased were but especially the Ceylon Spinach..it is growing beautifully & I'm already using it on a daily basis. I have purchased herbs from many other outlets over the years but none even come close to the quality of the plants from here!!
