Green Wave Mustard
Green Wave Mustard is a unique variety of mustard greens that is known for its distinct appearance and flavor. One of the most distinctive features of this variety is its frilly, curled leaves, which resemble the waves of an ocean. The leaves are a bright green color and have a slightly peppery taste, making them a popular ingredient in salads, sandwiches, and other dishes.
In addition to its unique appearance and flavor, Green Wave Mustard is also prized for its nutritional content. It is a good source of vitamins A and C, as well as calcium and iron, making it a great addition to a healthy diet.
Green Wave Mustard is also a fast-growing plant that is easy to cultivate, making it a popular choice for home gardeners and farmers alike. Its hardiness and ability to thrive in a variety of growing conditions make it a reliable and versatile addition to any garden or farm.

We grow with the seasons! So in most climates, you will be able to grow year round. Typically most leafy greens like the cooler temperatures. Some varieties such as spinach, bok choy, and mustards do not grow in warm temperatures (> 70 degrees). However, if there are heat tolerant varieties - we will grow them!
You want to be aware of the extreme temperature ranges in your region. If you follow the guidelines below, you will be safe:
COLD CLIMATES
- If you live in a location where the temperatures dip below freezing, then you will want to wait until night temperatures are in the 40's consistently.
- On the occasional dips into the 30's, you can cover with a sheet or bring them indoors for that time period. The breeze is good for plants and helps to keep bugs at bay so growing outdoors is optimal.
WARM CLIMATES:
- If you live where it reaches above 90 degrees consistently, you'll want to grow heat tolerant fruiting plants (tomatoes and peppers) and herbs (basil, mint, rosemary) primarily.
To find out what extreme temperatures your location experiences, check out the USDA zone for your region.
We always ship our organic seedlings at their peak for transplant which means they can be held before shipping. We typically ship plants according to the following schedule:
CA - ship Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays.
US states outside of CA - ship Mondays and Tuesdays.
Outside of US - we do not currently ship outside of the US.
For more information, refer to our shipping policy.
Don't worry we tend to over-communicate the details when it comes to logistics. You'll know when orders (both seedlings and other garden products) are shipped.
