Hello Janet and any Lurkers
Seasons Greetings
I think you were the only contributor to veggie-list over Christmas
(shame anybody else!) Let's all try to type a little something in the
new year, you never know an innocent remark can sometimes bring in a lot
of "Re:'s"
We have had some atrocious weather over the hols but we did
get enough sprouts for THE dinner, and they were not bitter. The land is
awash with all the rain and one polytunnel is waiting for a day with NO
wind to put a new cover on. So it's back to the seed catalogues again,
one order sent and lots to do. I have discovered a new family of edible
plants to track down, the amaranthus, a large group, apparently they
will tolerate heat to give salading when all else has given up.
Happy New Years Gardening
Allan
