Last weekend’s plantings are hard at work already, particularly one species of peas that seems to have the Holy Fire propelling it skyward.
I’ll probably have to replant the peas, at least, pretty soon.
By the way, note that I’m growing an interesting herb (exotic weed) Purslane, also known as portulacca.
Although purslane is considered a weed in the United States, it can be eaten as a leaf vegetable, providing sources can be found which have not been poisoned deliberately.
Apparently it’s got some beneficial antioxidants and fatty acids, although I tend to be put off by okra and things that have a mucilaginous quality.
Hopefully it’s useful and then I can let it free-run in stale corners of the garden.
