Rosette Tatsoi Bok Choy is a compact Asian green that reaches maturity in just 45 days, making it one of the quickest crops you can grow. This frost-tolerant member of the Brassicaceae family grows into a tight, rosette form measuring just 4-6 inches tall and 6-8 inches wide, fitting neatly into small spaces and containers. With its preference for full sun and moderate water, plus tolerance for cool-season growing, it's a reliable choice for successive plantings from spring through fall.

At just 45 days from seed to harvest, Rosette Tatsoi Bok Choy delivers genuine speed without sacrificing flavor or texture. The compact rosette form means you can grow more plants in less space, and its frost tolerance extends your harvest window into shoulder seasons when other greens have bolted or faded. Start seeds directly in the garden as soon as soil warms to 60°F, and you'll have tender greens ready weeks before slower crops even break ground.
This tender Asian green is eaten fresh in salads where its mild flavor shines, or quickly stir-fried whole or chopped into soups and noodle dishes. The entire rosette from leaf to stem is edible and cooks down beautifully, making it efficient for kitchen use.
No timeline data available yet for this variety.
Sow seeds directly outside 1-2 weeks after your average last frost date, when soil temperature reaches at least 60°F (ideally 65-75°F). Sow again in late summer and fall for successive harvests. In mild climates, sow in fall or winter for cool-season crops.
Harvest at 45 days after sowing when the rosette is fully formed but still tender. Cut the entire plant at soil level or harvest outer leaves individually for continued production.
