The insanity began at our house today. Please note: the National Weather Service is currently calling for snow flurries tonight.
I love Texas weather.
However, regardless, anyway, I planted in my garden.
Here's a quick run-down of the victims...., eer, I mean plants.
Mary Washington Asparagus
Martha Stewart told me to buy this type of asparagus, so I did. Really, I know very little about it (other than what I just read). Wait to harvest this until the second year. Seedlings produce more than crowns (which I planted crowns). They love manure - straight manure.
Red Potatoes
I really want these to taste as good as Muleshoe. You see, my hometown raises a lot of potatoes. And they are delicious. Here's hoping I did something right out there today.
Onions
I have some volunteers left-over from last year so we'll see how they do. Also, I wonder what kind of onion I really got. My package just says 'white'.
Garlic
I LOVE GARLIC!
Shallots - I was just recently introduced to shallots. Hopefully they'll want to live here too!
Mesclun
Spinach
I'll post later on their harvest dates. We'll see if I can keep them alive that long. Now, to go move the water.
