Wasabi Off-Shoots
Wasabi Off-Shoots
Wasabi off-shoots are the best way to grow wasabi at home. Hands down. Also known as wakime, our wasabi off-shoots have established root systems and are much healthier and more durable compared to tissue cultured 1st generation wasabi. Most off-shoots that we sell will have an established meristem and growth from the crown will be more rapid. This is a rare seasonal offering.
- Off-shoots will range in size from small to medium.
- Most/larger leaves will be trimmed from the off-shoots. This allows for more crown growth and facilitated packaging/shipping.
- Off-shoots are packaged in a zip-lock bag with a moist paper towel and a few drops of water. They are packaged in insulated envelopes with an ice pack.
- I recommend if shipping in the summer, or hotter weather (temperatures ranging to the mid-80's) to ship 1-2 days minimum.
