Answer
Hi,

Interesting question.  Are you doing research or is this just a question for yourself?

The veggies I would choose are:

kale, collards, spinach, Swiss chard, beans, cabbage, squash (you would have to choose one variety of squash) and salad greens (like lettuce, arugula, mustard greens)

I believe all these veggies cover all the 5 criteria. If you have any other questions regarding my choices please let me know.

Happy gardening,
