Pictured is a clump of leaf lettuce, just emerging with its two little cotyledon (seed) leaves visible. I planted 4 such clumps of 4 different salad greens (they will be thinned when they get bigger--I over planted as I didn't know how good the germ on the seeds was going to be).. Greens are one of my favorite garden veggies, because they are easy to grow and give such immediate satisfaction. You want a salad? Walk out the back door, pick it, wash it, and toss it together.Thursday, March 29, 2012

Hey, um, could I have a salad? The lettuce looks about the right size for me.
