Brassica juncea
Also called Chinese mustard, Indian mustard, Brown mustard, Leaf mustard, Mustard, Mustard Salade, Oriental Mustard
Brassica juncea is a cool-season annual grown for its leaves, seeds (the source of mustard condiment) and oil. It grows best in cool weather with consistent moisture, as heat and drought make it bolt and turn bitter.
Brassica juncea, commonly mustard greens, brown mustard, Chinese mustard, Indian mustard, Japanese mustard, Korean green mustard, leaf mustard, Oriental mustard and vegetable mustard, is a species of mustard plant.
