I've grown some "Red Spinach", also known as "Laal Shag" in Bangladesh.  This shard is highly nutritious and one of my favorite.  When you stir fry this or cook it like you would spinach, you will notice the "red juice" which is very very healthy stuff!  Oh by the way, you can eat these raw (like Salad) or with your favorite Sub.   I got some seeds from my brother and scattered them at a section and they came up very quickly.  I wish I spread them up evenly as many were overlapping and stunted little ones growth.  Oh well, next time I have to speed the seed evenly.

I still have few more patches left after collecting this much (you see in that bowl).  After cooking, this amount shrink so much that you would hardly believe that much Red Spinach made so little to eat. Anyway, I hope to grow in large quantities next year if I can gather enough seed from the plants I have left.

Howdy Gardeners ...

I wanted to start this blog simply because I didn't think my gardener talk fits in my chickenyou blog.  Since I already got started on the other one, it didn't make sense for me to create one that combine both interests in a single blog.  At this point , I am mainly blogging just to keep certain things documented and keep some of my friends and family in the loop on what's growing on in my backyard ... :)

In this page, I may talk about gardening in general which may include vegitables, to composting to fruit trees to ornamental trees to blah.  I guess just about anything gardening.
