Egyptian spinach

This is my first year growing Egyptian spinach. ..and it has gotten overgrown...but the good thing is that it is putting out lots of seed pods. I should have plenty of seeds!!

is it perennial? were at zone 8

[@Iloveorganicgardening]

No, it is an annual...at least here in zone 7b. Someone told me it was a perennial though so maybe it could be farther south.

Janice Rodriguez I am not an expert in ZONE things but it grow here in KUWAIT under the burning sun in summer amazingly .. were tempretues hit the 53 Cْ. just cutting the head of the plants and it gives leaves all the summer time . We use it for a tasty green soup and also it's a good cover for the soil during the summer.
