These mustard greens are absolutely stunning! Wouldn’t they just be fabulous in a floral arrangement with peonies and lillies? Let’s give it a shot in a few weeks when the seedlings have matured…

Those are beautiful plants, I may have to pick up some seeds for a later planting this year. I’ve used their seeds for almost everything in my garden this year and everything’s been growing well.
I had tons of my plants bolt early on my balcony garden, mostly arugula and baby bok choy. My radishes turned into trees while I was away, too. I’ve never seen them get that tall. Luckily my kale just grew a lot and didn’t bolt, so I have a bounty of greens.

So that’s why some of my broccoli rabe and tatsoi are bolting! This weather. Thanks for the heads up. (Ruby’s beautiful!)

Lovely!

And, as much as I loved our heat blast of late, I’m with you on the bolting problem. I’m not sure how well my cauliflower weathered the last two days of heat. I hope with the return of the June chill, things will be okay. (Btw: If you get overloaded with mustard, I’d be happy to do a leafy greens trade. I didn’t grow mustard this year.)

so many things started to bolt this week! Oh well, guess they are just making room for more yummy things.
