Spinach (Spinacia oleracea 'Reflect')

Spinach (Spinacia oleracea) in general, including the variety ‘Reflect’, originates from **Persia (ancient Persia, now Iran) and surrounding areas of Central Asia.**

While ‘Reflect’ is a specific modern cultivar, its genetic lineage traces back to the same origin as all spinach. The breeding and development of ‘Reflect’ likely occurred in a region with modern agricultural research, which could be anywhere, but the plant’s inherent adaptation is to a temperate climate, similar to its ancestral homeland.
