Eruca vesicaria, commonly known as arugula or rocket, is a perennial herbaceous plant from the Brassicaceae family, native to the Mediterranean region. It is widely appreciated for its edible leaves, which have a characteristic slightly peppery and bitter flavor, making it a popular ingredient in fresh salads, sauces, pizzas, and side dishes. Its common name, "serrated-leaf arugula," refers to the jagged shape of its leaves, with irregular edges similar to a saw.

This plant grows upright stems and can reach between 20 and 50 cm in height. Its small, white or pink flowers appear in clusters during spring or summer. Arugula is primarily cultivated for its leaves, which are harvested as they grow, allowing for continuous harvesting throughout the season.

When it comes to cultivation, Eruca vesicaria is easy to care for and adapts well to well-drained, slightly alkaline soils and sunny or partially shaded locations. It is a resilient plant that grows quickly, making it ideal for home gardens, urban farms, or even pots. Harvesting its leaves is simple and can be done throughout the season with proper watering and regular cutting to encourage new growth.
