Allotments 4 All

My new most fave veg!



Having a green one this evening grated raw with carrot, tossed with a little mayo as a yummy coleslaw to have with the italian biondi lettuce and rocket salad the kids and I picked today!  ;D

That is looking almost alien,but never the less great kohlrabi E.J. Which variaty is it purple vienna?

I don't know Ruud, came in a packet from Marshalls I think and it just said green and red mix.  They are all approaching tennis ball size now, we have munched the bigger ones already!  Next year I am definately going to grow more unusual coloured veggies.  Just love 'em!  ;D

In the flower border, of course? = Tim

They sure look strange EJ. And have they grown quickly? I seem to recall it wasn't that long ago that you were asking if they were hardy and could go outside!  :)

Well done EJ -gives me hope, mine aren't bead-sized yet.

In the garden, at the allotment, in pots Tim, I don't care, tis all fair game for growing things that make you do a double take!

They grew really quickly actually, and haven't had any special care, just a little weeding.....actually, a touch embaressed about the amount of weeds around that particular rabi.

The leaves are good also, but I do love my greens (or purples in this case), as they are strong flavoured and quite tough! YUM!  I know, I know....but I love sprouts also....raw!
