OBS

Cette forme, qui paraît se rapprocher plus qu'aucune autre de la plante sauvage, est aujourd'hui très rare dans les cultures, au moins en France. Elle se distingue par ses feuilles assez étroites, aiguës, très fortement sagittées, ses pétioles teintés de rouge et sa graine armée de cornes piquantes.

OBS

Dans le Larousse gastronomique (LAGAS-F, 1984, page 404), on parle des variétés d'hiver et d'été de l'épinard.
