Salad Rocket (Arugula) Plants

Buy Salad Rocket Plant (Arugula) – Fresh Australian Grown | Eumundi Herb Farm

Grow your own peppery Salad Rocket (Eruca sativa), also known as Arugula, with plants freshly grown at Eumundi Herb Farm on the Sunshine Coast. This fast-growing leafy green is a favourite in modern kitchens and cottage gardens for its bold, nutty-peppery flavour and quick harvest time.

Why Grow Your Own Salad Rocket? Homegrown rocket is far more flavoursome and tender than supermarket leaves. Add it to fresh salads, sandwiches, pizzas, pasta dishes, or blend into vibrant pesto and smoothies. The young leaves offer a mild peppery kick, while larger leaves develop a stronger, more robust flavour.

Key Benefits:

• Ultra-fast growing — Ready to harvest in as little as 3–4 weeks
• Cut-and-come-again — Harvest outer leaves continuously for months
• Nutrient dense — Rich in vitamins A, C, K, folate, and antioxidants
• Compact & versatile — Ideal for pots, balcony gardens, and small spaces

Growing Tips for Sunshine Coast Gardens Salad Rocket thrives in the subtropical climate of Queensland. Plant in full sun to partial shade with moist, well-drained soil. It grows best in cooler months but will tolerate warmer weather with afternoon shade and regular watering. Sow or plant successively every few weeks for a continuous supply. In hot weather, it may bolt quickly, so harvest often.

• Variety: Wild-type Salad Rocket (classic peppery flavour)
