This hardy perennial provides leaves that have a bright, lemony-apple tang for soup, salad and sauces.  Once established, sorrel produces some of the earliest greens of the spring.  Expect your first real harvest very early next spring.  In the second year the plant will spread and can be divided every few years.  Likes partial shade.  It's an important permaculture plant as a "dynamic accumulator" meaning it mines soil for nutrients acting as a fertilizer source.  60 days.
