Perennial vegetable plants
I'm told that most vegetable plants will die in the fall season.
What vegetable plants are hardy enough to survive from year to year, despite the season? I don't want to waste time planting & caring for things that will die no matter what I do to them. "We lie. We cheat. We steal." -- WWE wrestler, Eddie Guerrero |

Perhaps you should try another pastime, like knitting or welding.

You misunderstand. Its not a matter of being hardy enough. Most plants grown
as vegetables are naturally annuals or biennials. If you have a problem with that, go complain to the creator! There are very few perennial vegetables, like asparagus, potatoes, horseradish and garlic, but then again you will still need to make an effort to harvest them. If you have a problem with things dying, then try taking up collecting books or artwork and just buy your vegetables at the market. Ablang wrote in message ...

try rhubarb, collard greens and asparagus...but what area are you in? that
may help define what you can grow. Jane "Ablang" wrote in message ... I'm told that most vegetable plants will die in the fall season.

Globe artichokes are perennial, if you're in a warm enough, but NOT hot zone.

They look like hell for a while when you first get them inside, but getting them somewhat adjusted to lower-light conditions, in addition to giving them some additional light indoors, will enable you to bring 'em in for the winter. Just uproot and pot in the fall, or even grow them in pots in the first place... Jason |

Artichokes, asparagus, Perrenial brocolli, perennial spinach, Kudzu (if you count it as vegetable, it *is* edible!, Rhubarb, tree tomatoes... Broad beans will give you 2 crops if cut back. Many tree fruits and cane fruits return each year, as do strawberries. Try looking up forest gardening for multi season producing crops. // J |

You "plant" children?
You are even nuttier than Ablang. Your analogy makes no sense. wrote in message ...

How would that philosophy work, applied to children? They, too, have to be "planted" and cared for, and they, too, will die eventually, no matter what you do to them. -- Persephone |

It's sad to see how much effort kind folk will make to seriously answer a troll. Unless poor Ablang is, what's the proper term these days?, "developmentally challanged." |
