I'm thinking that, next year, five or six plants will be more my speed, too. Along with the bok choy, I'm trying a couple of other new-to-me stuff, too. Those that interest me most are celery and a "new" variety of carrots. I wish you luck with the celery. me too! I grew beautiful, plump and juicy celery in Michigan, but my attempts in SE VA were a bust. Too stringy and thin stalks. Between the long growing span of celery and the heat here, celery wasn't happy and the results weren't worth the effort and garden space. aww... Nyssa, who can't grow half of what she uses because it won't grow here or the voles get it do you like fennel? it is much quicker and easier to grow. this year i'm adding pak choi and fennel to the mix. we'll see how they do in various locations, some with competition and others with none, and a variety of soil places and moisture levels. songbird I don't care for fennel, but I have grown bak choy several times. I usually stick to the extra dwarf variety for salads and the dwarf for use in stir fries and soups. I'd grow bak choy more often, but I'm the only one who eats it. I can't give it away to the neighbors, ditto any other Asian vegetable that I like, so I rarely grow it anymore. It just rots since I can't use it all. Nyssa, who needs to recruit neighbors who are more open to "strange" foods Don't call it them furrin names tell them its cabbage. D |
