Container veggies perking up

The cauliflower went through a growth spurt and the lettuce took off too.
This frilly reddish mustard is really good. Part of a mix, so I don’t know which one it is. |
I'd perk up if I was in Florida! Very nice and I'm a tad jealous. It's below zero here.

Today I finally managed to not eat all the snap peas as I poked around in the garden, so I added them to the Thai red curry for dinner.

Nice!

Thanks! Sugar Magnolia and a few Magnolia Blossom, with Royal Snow to follow.

Those red podded snap peas are gorgeous! What variety is that?
|
Those are the Sugar Magnolia peas...more purple than red. From Baker Creek.

Those are pretty. I bet they grow tall rather than "bush". :surprised: Here are my bush snap peas. I think "Sugar Daddy". |
Nice, Shrinkrap! I refuse to buy snap or snow peas as they taste nothing like home grown fresh picked.
Yes, they get 6 to 7 feet or so but not crazy tall like pole beans. |
Those are pretty peas, PJ! Boy, I'm tempted but thank goodness the allotted space for peas is filled. :lol:
I've grown sugar snaps twice and somehow once they went into the freezer they hardly ever came out. Maybe out of sight, out of mind. The second time I didn't provide any support as the catalog description said they didn't need any, that they'd support each other. Well, a storm came through with high wind and laid those peas down just before first picking. What a tangled mess! That was the last time I grew them. |

But ... they taste so good fresh I always grow them. |
Those peas look so awesome.

Lol, I’m a sucker for unusually colored vegetables. I maintain a neighbor’s planter and last weekend they discovered their cauliflower is purple. It was pretty funny. |
