Barbarea verna

Origin: Western Asia & Southern Europe

Improvement status: Cultivated wild material

Seeds per packet: ~400

Germination tested 12/2025: 85%

Life cycle: Biennial or occasionally short-lived perennial

Also called land cress, bitter cress, winter cress, and Belle Isle cress, this cabbage-family biennial (or short-lived perennial) from western Asia and southern Europe has become naturalized around the world. The taste is similar to watercress, but it is much easier to grow (needs no water beyond that which falls from the sky). Long cultivated as a vegetable, it is most well-known these days as a weed, but for many people it is still a treasured heirloom — not least because at various points in history it has been a lifeline. As a critical source of Vitamin C and other nutrients, it has prevented scurvy for untold numbers of people through the years. Stories abound of people in life-threatening situations relying on this plant for vital nutrition, from shipwrecked sailors in Europe to enslaved African people in the US — both while enduring slavery and on the run, living by their wits and foraging for whatever could be found. 

Our seeds come from the Ujamaa Cooperative Farming Alliance (UCFA), who got them from Southern Exposure Seed Exchange (SESE). The name "creasy greens" applies most to this species when it is cooked like collard greens, but that's the name SESE uses for it, so that's the name we're using too. 50% of the cost of every packet sold will be returned to UCFA.

I think they’re worth a try…
Size: X-Large, Color: Bluish Blue/White Stripe
Final determination will take a few months of wearing the shirts. First impressions, 1. styling is great. They look good. 2. When you l wash them, I suggest drying them all the way. They seem to wrinkle easier than other shirts I have. 3. Moisture wicking: on the few days where the weather has been warm, the shirt's seem to absorb the moisture from heat. 4. Fit: From my perspective I think the shirts are more of an athletic or modern fit, meaning a little more snug compared to other XL shirts I wear from Peter Millar or Footjoy or Fairway and Greene. I have broader shoulders. Quality: so far they seem ok. I’ve notice on a couple of shirts I needed to cut or trim loose threads from manufacturing process. The fabric seems good with a decent amount of stretch built into the design. Pricing: when you shop for big name brand golf shirts you pay a premium so these shirts, at around $30 a shirt, seem worth a try…I bought 5 different shirts so I’m hoping they prove to be worth it…

Comfortable and stylish
Size: X-Large, Color: Dark Blue Stripe
The shirt fits, stretches, doesn't wrinkle, and most importantly to me for a moisture wicking shirt, doesn't easily catch on things you brush up against and get little pulls in the fabric.

Great golf shirt!
Size: Small, Color: White/Light Blue Stripe
My son loves this shirt! It has silky smooth wrinkle-fabric and is nice and cool on the golf course. It is true to size, hangs well (no clinging) and allows full range of movement. It washes great! I wash and dry in the machine and stains come right out.
