Though one year I did have cutworms take my onions down. I guess they were desperate that year.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4544358755192295336.post-32091475449982074682014-10-20T18:06:05.313-07:002014-10-20T18:06:05.313-07:00Looking very good!

Not an expert on herb preservation but you could infuse some of the tarragon and make a tarragon vinegar, one of my favorites.David Veltenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07710293718143454000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4544358755192295336.post-84100428886892480332014-10-20T17:06:39.631-07:002014-10-20T17:06:39.631-07:00Those are Red Baron bunching onions ... there is a...Those are Red Baron bunching onions ... there is a green layer between the red "skin" and the white bulb. They look really neat sliced up! And my early batch was left a while before harvesting and they grew quite large so very productive.Susiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10354350096358468967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4544358755192295336.post-31738277554837473632014-10-20T16:43:33.974-07:002014-10-20T16:43:33.974-07:00That arugula looks so nice - I'm basically don...That arugula looks so nice - I'm basically done with salad greens and wish I had gotten around to a fall planting so that I could continue to enjoy them for a bit more. And finding those gorgeous potatoes unexpectedly must have really made your day! BTW love the colour on the spring onions - what variety are they?Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15949946977793864054noreply@blogger.com
