RE: BEE ON THYME OR YOU MAY BE HUNGRY

in HiveGarden2 years ago

It inspires me to drag myself into the garden.
Urging me on. Dig. Dig. Plant. Mulch. Water. Water. WATER!!!!!!

It is amazing how they just carry on right? Nothing holding them back, because they know a day lost will mean most likely death. What an inspiration.

Oh, winter is surely salad rocket for me. I wait and crave and yearn for freshly picked rocket the whole of summer but only get the satisfaction in the winter.

Sort:  

Really?! Apart from a bare patch over a couple months here and there we pretty much have rocket year round! The wild variety comes up where and whenever. It's my favourite. It has a delightfully sharp flavour. With fresh avo and a handful of olives ..... YUMMY!!!

Still have your amaranth tab open and unanswered. So I'll double up here. If you pop me your email address we can chat there? I have one or two (million) seeds. I don't mind sending you some? And rocket although I must check for seeds. I never plant because, as I mentioned, they do what they will!

The same here! It is the salad one, Eruca sativa, that bolts in the summer. It makes one or two leaves but immediately bolts.

With fresh avo and a handful of olives

Yes! I love this. My go-to salad, with sundried tomatoes and lemon to add some zing.

Awesome, yes! That would be awesome. I have one two three million rocket (Eruca sativa) seeds. I had a couple of good years' harvests and still have loads of them. But we can chat via email or Instagram or discord.
