Strange things to grow

<< < (2/3) > >>

Ceri:
when I was a kid, my dad would let me have a bit of his veg garden space to grow gourds - wild and wonderful - not edible though.  Romanesco is a really unusual vegetable that is very difficult to buy - globe artichokes are expensive to buy, and are perennial.  Jerusalem artichoke - apparently grows really tall and makes a good screen.

Beer_Belly:
You could try growing some shoe trees but I hear you need rocking horse manure in order to get them to germinate  ;)

Tenuse:
Grow your own lentils  ;D

ina:
I grew some purple french beans this year, surprised a lot of people. You can see the picture on the gallery. -Ina

cleo:
Try a cardoon-huge great thing that (in theory) you can blanch and eat.

Beer Belly-salsify and scorzonera are easy-give them a go.
