in a recycled carry out container grows pea sprouts that are quite tasty with tomatoes and hummus. In the gold goblet, upland cress is hopefully germinating. Their sprouts from a previous harvest were quite fine on smoked salmon. And I think in the clay pots I planted some combination of sunflowers and a spicy mesclun mix. The sun shines on them bright so we’ll see what happens next. And, meanwhile, outside and down below, that same sun shines intense on a landscape covered in ice and snow.

… they grow in their small vessels upon a short bookcase that’s filled with cookbooks and related food literature. It has been a joy to try photographing their leaves, from different angles, in this morning’s bright winter’s light.

Two new posters available in my Zazzle shop. Just click on the image for more information on availability. The first image is of spicy cress sprouting in a shell I found on Revere Beach. The second image is of clover, a “weed” I recently learned is edible, so in a little clay pot it now grows next to my other herbs.

And in the bucket where my mini crop of potatoes once grew, a wonderfully gnarly growth of nasturtium. No blooms quite yet, but I’m waiting.

It is a gift that keeps giving. The herb with one hundred names. Oregano on steroids. My friend simply introduced it as cuban oregano when he handed me the little pot several years ago.
It is a hardy succulent that smells wonderful when you rake your finger gently across a leaf. And even if you aren’t gentle, and a piece falls to the soil, no problem. It roots quite easily. From my one pot, I now have several pots of oregano. Please keep in mind that some of these “pots” are the size of demitasse cups but … they are still wonderful, edible, bits of green to tuck in sunlit places.
P.S. You can view some green images in this previous post. 😉
