2020 Winter Garden Update


So in a bit of a "Let us ignore the insanity of the world around us", a view of the winter garden.

Finally, after years of hoping I may have a bumper crop of lime blossoms.  Hopefully this leads to actual limes:


A measley one each of lettuce and two spinach plants.  At this point, they are destined for seed.  The garlic and onions farther on, however are doing well:


The saffron growth are laying over.  No idea why, as we have had significant rain over the last week.  Something else to learn.


Winter Rye is trucking along fine, despite the leaf fall:


And the mint is returning!

  1. I've read that mint is very hard to kill. And very hard to keep where you want it. ;-)
    Glad your garden is growing. Good luck with the limes!

    1. Linda, mint is very durable given enough water - and yes, will spread wherever it can. One trick is to plant it inside a sell can with both ends gut out.

      I am excited about the limes. I love citrus!
