I've always referred to spinach picked young as baby spinach. I've sold a
bunch to health food stores that way. Long Standing Bloomsdale Spinach is
particularly good this way for me.

Pardon the dumb question, but is baby spinach, as the name implies,
just young spinach, or is it a particular species/variety of spinach?
If it is the former, is any variety of spinach recommended to
harvest as baby spinach for salads? If it is the latter, can
someone recommend a mail-order retail supplier of baby spinach
seed?

Thanks,
