Those of you who live "up north" may recognise this type of pea, Carlin. I've been looking for an alternative to chickpeas and these Black badger types have a whopping 23g/100g of protein.
Going to have a go at growing this year, once I think of a way of keeping th rats and pigeons away.

I love surprises. This #plant was almost dead when I got it from the lady who gave me the 2 rectangular #planters last year and said she had problem keeping it alive.

I changed the pot, added some home made #compost to it last summer and now she is full of pretty #flowers.

Three Good Things

Planted the little apple tree that arrived in the mail today. I'm glad it's tiny because it took most of my energy today to plant it. I named it Excelsior which is funny because it leans a little.

I heard my first bee of the season buzz past my ear.

There are tiny lupins popping up in the front bed and the native sedums I planted seem quite happy.

Things seem harrowing in the world on the daily, but the plants pay no mind.

Growing Onions and Leeks in the City

This genus of plant can be divided into bulbing and non-bulbing types, with onions and shallots the bulb type and leeks and Welsh onions not producing bulbs…

Spinach is an annual with tender green leaves, while chard (a biennial from the beet family) lasts longer before going to seed. Chard includes Swiss chard (silverbeet) & ruby chard, with edible red or white stalks. Chard leaves are tougher than spinach, but both make great leafy greens! #GrowYourOwn

Officially baby skirret popping their tiny little heads up!

When you #growyourown #cannabis you are also Johnny-On-The-Spot for those unique grow moments that happen "quietly" between the big events.. before I exorcised the purple from my grow the fun pix were available seemingly on a daily basis...

Here's my 10 x 25' plot at the community garden. To keep the birds off my peas and the squirrels off my tomatoes I've draped netting over the center portion that contains trellises made of concrete reinforcement panels. #garden #gardening #allotment #fence #peas #tomatoes #swarthmore #GrowYourOwn #VerticalGardening

The baby pineapple is looking more pineapple-like by the day! Technically it's just a bloom at this point - a very bristly bloom! It will soon be covered in purple petals, and then it will be on its way to being a delicious fruit.

I have a total of three pineapple plants that I've grown from pineapple tops. This is the second one. The first one fruited last year, and I grew a third plant from the top of its fruit. I grew the first two plants from the tops of store-bought pineapples. They're surprisingly easy to grow, though they're tender, so they have to spend the winter in the house.
