- Species and varieties: Malabar spinach (Basella alba or Basella rubra) is a fast-growing, soft-stemmed vine. There are two main varieties: Basella alba, which has green stems and leaves, and Basella rubra, which has red stems and green leaves.
- Hybrid or heirloom: Malabar spinach is typically grown from heirloom seeds, as it is a traditional plant with a long history of cultivation. However, hybrid varieties may also be available.
- Pruning and training: Malabar spinach requires regular pruning to encourage bushier growth and to prevent it from becoming too leggy. It can be trained to grow on a trellis or other support structure to maximize space and improve air circulation.
- Fertilization needs: Malabar spinach benefits from regular fertilization. Use a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Organic options like compost or well-rotted manure can also be used to enrich the soil.
- Hardiness zones: Malabar spinach is suitable for USDA hardiness zones 7-11. It thrives in warm, humid climates and can be grown as a perennial in tropical regions.
- Climate requirements: Malabar spinach prefers warm temperatures and high humidity. It grows best in temperatures between 70-90°F (21-32°C). It is not frost-tolerant and should be planted after the last frost date in cooler climates.
