I am always happy to read your comments, dear readers. However, I am trialling 'word verification' for a little while, as I have been receiving a lot of spam. The spam never makes it onto the comment pages, as I am moderating all comments. But it is starting to get tedious to moderate all the spam. I hope this will not cause any inconvenience to any of may regular readers. Please leave a comment - I am always happy to hear from you! :)
It's a seedling that's just popped up with its cotyledons still held in the seed casing, just. A seedling of what I don't know, but it's quite lovely.

ReplyDeleteOoops...sorry. Had forgotten about this 'puzzle'.
ReplyDeleteGavin was pretty close with his answer 'spinach'.
This is Red Orache, or mountain spinach. Very pretty purple leaves. Can be eaten raw in salads or sandwiches or thrown into pasta, sauces, etc. :)
I never would've gotten that one, LOL, but it's stored away in the memory files now. It's amazing the variety of veggies we can grow nowadays. :)
