To know someone with whom you feel there is understanding in spite of distances or thoughts unexpressed -- that can make of this earth a garden.
--Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The Forellenschluss lettuce has gained its spots and is beginning to live up to its name, which is commonly translated "speckled like a trout," but more literally means "trout tail."
The fall garlic is coming up through the straw and compost mulch. So far, so good. No sign of the neighboring asparagus yet though.
The first transplants went in beneath the pole bean trellis (as did the pole beans), this weekend. Here are a Belstar and Packman broccoli in front and, behind them, Speckled, Yugoslavian Red, and Forellenschluss lettuce.
Most of the seedlings still remain safely ensconced in the cold frame awaiting a little more consistent nighttime temps.
