Orach 'Green Spires?'

butterflylion
18 years ago

I saw this info about Orach 'Green Spires' in the J. L. Hudson catalog: "Dark green plants to 5 feet high. Bred for the European florist trade, very ornamental, as well as being good in the vegetable garden." Does anyone know how it's used by florists? Thanks!
