It's a mild vegetable with I think the texture of raw broccoli stem. <BR/><BR/>I also love pears, particularly the red pears!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01797443528619232804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4297982013129573383.post-26415009824959311062008-03-13T15:22:00.000-06:002008-03-13T15:22:00.000-06:00My goodness you are to great!

Damn I wish I had the power to teleport! I would be there in a flash to see this cute set up you've acquired. <BR/>I got your message from the other day... oh I guess last week now... and I have not forgotten you. Big city life has me busier than ever... actually its having roommates who always invite me to things and I have almost no ability to decline... so busy I am. But I soon hit the road to Eugene, OR and will begin my field season on April 9th. I'm stoked!<BR/>I will be in touch soon!

Can they be grown in Indiana? I always plant so many tomatoes because there is nothing like homegrown tomatoes! <BR/><BR/>I've been debating my gardening strategy for this year - we'll see what the final result is. And hopefully I'll be able to keep up with it better this year! I love spring!Alainahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11572980494087728018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4297982013129573383.post-68488461210596382602008-03-09T15:47:00.000-06:002008-03-09T15:47:00.000-06:00Okay, maybe I should not be so vengeful.

In indiana, the Canada thisle is a pest and should be killed on sight. That is the plant where the tiny black seeds come from that feed the finches all winter long!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
