It almost died during the cold spells,but it has survived.

pretty veggies. I esp. liked the oriental green photo since I have it growing and didn't know what it was. I've been stir frying it with collards, tomatoes and chicken. Yum.

Michael,thanks,I know what you mean,LOL.
I do love greens and they seem,so easy to grow.
Sylvia,
thanks. You have been my inspiration.
If you can do it,so can I,right? :-)
Tom,thanks. Makes me feel good to provide,
organic vegetable for the family. We are changing
the way we ate. Little at a time.
Denise,thanks. That sounds yummy.
Wanda,thanks. It has been some work,but it's been
fun,also. Specially watching it grow.
I'm looking forward to the next season,with tomatoes
and the rest that can not take the cold temperatures.
Also the rest of the ornamental,garden,will need attention.
I am going to be so busy...
Hugs, to all of you,my friends.

Felix, you can never have too many mustard as I like eating them when they are small wilted with just a touch of EVOO, sea salt and black pepper. Then when they get bigger, I adore boiling them with a little bacon and eating them as they are so yummy especially with hot pepper sauce created from hot peppers from the garden. God job and makes me crave mustard. Linda

domesticated cats... JUST KIDDING!!!HA HA HA,

lol, not the cats!!!

Great garden. I wish my greens were nearly as far along as yours. By the time mine are that size they're going to stir fry right in the ground.

Hi,ljloyd.
Thanks for the compliment.
Some greens can take some heat,so don't be too concern.
It also,depends on the zone,unless you are way down,
where the mango and avocado grows :-)
We had frost,this morning.
