Over the last two week ends, I have been back in the garden tidying
and preparing for later planting.
One of the jobs was to remove plants which were abandoned to the very
wet (and mucky) winter by this here fair weather gardener.
I had 1/2 a row of salsify still in the ground, and figured though
they probably would be terribly woody by now, it might just be worth
cleaning out the roots and seeing what could be salvaged. Well, after
nearly 10 months in the ground, including the entire winter, they are
still quite delicious.

I still have half a row of kohlrabi to tackle, and I am wondering
whether to chuck those directly onto the compost heap - they too have
been in the ground for the last 10 months or so...
