It is chukka kura or pulla bachchali. It grows like a perennial in warmer parts. I pluck the top leaves with stems and they grow back. It is one of the most tasty greens I have come across. I do not know the Egnlish or botanical name for this. The flowery picture is the seed. I do not know whether you are also from Andhra Pradesh. Then you should know the above name I mentioned. I saw your garden pictures. They are amazing. Enjoy gardening. Indu Modali

Do you have any seeds you can part with? What is the best time to grow these? I am in the hot and humid South.

I don't have any left for this year. I am from india. Usually they do grow year around. In US they should do good in the summer.
