They will eventually form a groundcover if you let them but can also be trimmed or pruned to stay as separate plants.To maximize space in a vegetable garden, you can plant Longevity spinach underneath taller vegetables like mature kale or perennial kale. Although some people recommend planting it with tomatoes, I personally find that virtually nothing grows well under tomatoes because they’re so vigorous and have aggressive roots. It can also be planted around fruit trees or berry bushes and will act as a “living mulch” to keep weeds down. Longevity spinach is a great addition to a perennial garden or food forest. As always, be sure to water your seedlings in well after planting. This helps mitigate transplant shock. I typically water seeds and seedlings with a watering wand. The water is more gentle and less likely to damage young plants and their delicate root systems. This plant is hardy in zones 9-11. It will be damaged by frost, but will take light and short freezes. Will be killed by hard freezes. If ground doesn't freeze and if there is sufficient mulch around the base of the plant, it may grow back from the base though.
