The message
from T i m contains these words:

I was talking to the missus tonight re my recent produce growing
experiment and she used the term 'greens'.

Like religious festivals which fall on different dates depending on
which denomination celebrates them, 'greens' can mean many things to
mant people.

Loosely, I'd say, any green vegetable meant to be cooked, including
spinach, kale, Savoy and similar densely-hearted cabbages, kohl rabbi,
broccoli, cauliflower, ground elder, fat hen and the various related
oraches, etc, and so-on.

Used specifically, it usually refers to 'spring greens', which is a
sort-of open cabbage, sometimes closed though, and resembling a
spinning-top.
