'Lunar Queen 2' Bok Choy Variety

Hi, I'm Rachel Katz, and I am the Crop Specialist for Leafy Greens here at Johnny's.

Today we're talking about our new Bok Choy add, 'Lunar Queen 2'. Here we have it on the right.

It has these really lovely dark green leaves and a nice round bulbing head. It's been harvestable for about two weeks, and you can see the core is just only slightly starting to elongate.

It has a really nice holding window. It's a really lovely variety.

We are adding it to replace our long-standing older variety, ‘Mei Qing Choi’, which has a lighter green leaf, and you can see it has really started to fall apart. They were mature at about the same time, and ‘Mei Qing Choi’ has substantially developed a lot of plantlets in the axillary buds, and you can see that the core has elongated quite a bit and is about to break into flower.

’Lunar Queen 2’ holds really well in the field so that you can get your harvests when it's right for you and not just before the plant goes by.
