We dedicated a large bed to them for several years but found that they took up a lot of room for the yield and were work intensive with the weeds they attracted. Then there is the untidy period where they get straggly .
No more. Much as we like them. It is one thing we buy at the local market along with mushrooms, celery and for the greater part carrots.
Some things are best grown by the professionals.
I know that statement will attract contradiction.
However it is only fair to say that mixed growing is not always ideal.
It is worth trying all sorts, just for the sake of adventure, experience and discovery..
In the end, if one grows for cooking then there are some fruits and vegetables not worth the bother and others which are well worth the trouble.
A matter of personal choice. We sometimes have to find out for ourselves.
