Sorrel Red Veined
Rumex sanguineus
Red-Veined Sorrel has a distinctive flavour that is often described as tangy, slightly sour and refreshing, with earthy undertones.
Harvest red-veined sorrel as needed throughout the growing season. The young foliage is the most tender. Remove any seed stocks that start to appear to keep your plant productive. Sorrel is a perennial, but tends to be short-lived.
Red-Veined Sorrel grows best in full to part sun with fertile, moist, well-drained soils. Consider adding organic matter to your garden to improve drainage and soil fertility.
Seasonal Availability: Typically available April through June, depending on suppliers availability.
