Superfood Spinach Tree with a Tropical Twist
Serrated Chaya Tree, also known as Mexican Spinach Tree or Tree Spinach, is a nutrient-dense perennial leafy green native to Mexico and Central America. This variety features deeply lobed, serrated leaves that are not only ornamental but also highly edible once cooked—offering a rich, earthy flavor similar to spinach, but with far more protein, iron, calcium, and antioxidants.
Grown for centuries as a food and medicinal plant, Serrated Chaya thrives in hot, sunny climates, making it a go-to green for subtropical and tropical gardens. The plant can grow up to 6–10 feet tall, forming a lush, upright shrub that responds well to pruning and harvesting. The more you cut, the more it produces—making it one of the most productive perennial greens you can grow.
Unlike some Chaya types, this non-stinging variety is easy and safe to handle. Just remember: leaves must be cooked before eating to neutralize naturally occurring toxins—similar to how cassava is prepared. Once lightly boiled, Chaya becomes a tender, nutrient-packed supergreen you’ll want in soups, sautés, omelets, and broths year-round.

Love this Compost! My garden does great every year and it's because of
this great Compost Mix. I would not use anything else.
Great dirt and great communication
Started a new garden and it seems to be helping all of my new starter plantings
Product was great! Ordered some seeds as part of a gift along with a gardening apron. Was a quality item, arrived quickly and it was a big hit!
Super fast service and answered all my questions!
Great service each time I used them, 3 times now.
He delivered great organic topsoil the same day. Excellent subsurface for sod. Friendly and fast, very careful during delivery.
The mulch was great. No junk in it like the bagged stuff. AsS with all outdoor projects weather is a thing. They were understanding of delays and changes.. And when the day came for delivery, there was plenty of communication and showed up on time. Plus the price was right!
I am very happy with my soil purchase! Great company to do business with! I highly recommend!
It works well. I just wish it had some residual to it so I wouldn't have to spray every few weeks.
Good and high quality, best pants from a soil company ive ever bought.
If you want a quick turn around when ordering soil, this is your guy. If you want someone to dump soil where YOU want it, this is your guy. If you want someone to sell you good soil instead of sand and broken up pallets, this is your guy. It seems weird that a guy and his wife would be so excited about dirt, I know. But we were. It’s the beginning of a big transformation for our house. So we ordered this, I think on and Saturday and surprisingly he said he could deliver it on Monday! So Monday, we woke up and literally wished each other a happy dirt day. I went to work and sure enough, he showed up on time and dumped the dirt exactly where we were hoping. And when I got home I walked over and before I could get there, you could smell the organic material in the dirt. Our plants will love this. Excellent quality. Excellent transaction. Excellent service. Couldn’t be happier.
Very high quality fertilizer. Very pleased.
