Its Surprise me that our Chinese Mustard ( Kai Choy) can survived over winter in the northwest of England. I sowed them on ground in late Oct. I thought I'll wasted all them seeds. I only used one of the mini ploytunnel from Poundshop to cover it. It survived and look like its ready picking. It doesn't look like its leggy like the cabbages I grow. Its very nice & green.

Yes It hard to get some fresh green leaves in February. We've some hard frost last month or two. I thought it had been killed by then. Some other winter vegetables hardly survived even when I keep them in the greenhouse. yuet
