Only one carrot has come
up.
I was pleased about the lack of
summer because up to now I've been able to blame the rain. You should never plant carrots just before it
rains hard, apparently. So when has anyone planted them?
Still, it's growing well now
the sun is out. And it's not just a
home-grown organic carrot. It's a home-grown
organic Chantenay carrot, deserving fast buttery cooking with mint and honey;
or roasting in olive oil.
The bad news is Chantenay
carrots are small. Very small.
It's a lot of work for one
carrot and I expect someone else will eat it.
