More gardening...

[mrph]

As much for my own reference as anything else, I've now planted...

• Salsify (Mammoth)
• Beetroot (Moneta)
• Turnips (Market Express)
• Swede (???)
• Runner Beans
• French Beans
• Radishes (???)
• Kohlrabi (Purple Delicacy)
• Wild Rocket
• Perpetual Spinach
• Lettuce (LIttle Gem)

...and I'm running out of space. :)

Still room for a few more things, but they'll mostly be greens for later in the year - e.g. chicory, spinach, red mustard, mibuna and kailan. Plus some Spanish black winter radishes...

Where did you get your salsify from? Kinda tempted this year to try that and a bit of horseradish given that I should really rest the potato soil for a year or two. :O(

The salsify was from Chiltern Seeds (www.chilternseeds.co.uk) - I got a lot of this year's seeds from them; I think they also do scorzonera.

I got my horseradish from Jekka's Herb Farm, who are generally excellent - I'm still trying to secure a bit of garden so I can plant it out without the whole garden being colonised. The (small) leaves are surprisingly nice - if warming - when used sparingly in salad, too...

Cheers, will take a look. :)
