White mustard, flax and other fairy tales

Growing spices
April 08, 2009


White MustardThis White Mustard from winter sowing produced fresh bitter leaves, that I added to salads.
Now the plants are bolting, and soon they'll start to bloom.


FlaxThis tiny plants are flax, they will produce blue flowers and then the flax seeds.


BarbabietolaThis plant is an Egyptian Beetroot, I can't wait to harvest it!
