Tiny but mighty, Pak Choi Dwarf (often called "Extra Dwarf White") is the perfect solution for gardeners with limited space. This adorable heirloom forms compact, vase-shaped rosettes that reach only 2 to 4 inches in height. Despite its stature, it packs a flavorful punch with thick, snow-white stems that are remarkably succulent and crisp, topped with deep forest-green leaves. Its sweet, buttery taste and crunchy texture make it a gourmet favorite for quick stir-frys or steaming whole as an elegant side dish.

This variety is a "sprinter" in the garden, reaching maturity in a lightning-fast 30 to 40 days. Because of its diminutive size, it is the ultimate choice for container gardening, window boxes, or intensive square-foot gardening layouts. For the best quality, sow seeds in the cool weather of early spring or late summer, as it thrives in mild temperatures and appreciates consistent moisture to maintain its signature crunch.
