Day 71 Cabbage Heads and Black Eyes


This morning when I went out to add plums to the crate in the Boulevarden (there are plums to pick everyday - and the crate is emptied by the end of every day so it works out well) I noticed that two cabbages had been harvested.

I harvested one last week as well as some dill and other veggies to make borscht. Yum.

I transplanted some volunteer Black-eyed Susan (Rudebeckia hirta) in the space left by the harvested cabbages. Black-eyed Susan are very drought tolerant. I have many volunteers in my garden, as well as Lemon Balm and Sedum so this weekend I will pot some up and leave them in the Boulevard...come by if you would like a couple of drought tolerant plants.
