In My San Diego Garden and Kitchen

In My San Diego Garden and Kitchen

Just as Advent is about the coming, my winter garden is about anticipation. I harvest lettuce and arugula for now and flowers in the street side garden. I look to the future.

The first sowing of arugula will soon be supplanted by other winter greens. As soon as I begin to cut arugula I succession sow another small area, keeping arugula always in the garden.

The last of the Dorsett Golden apples became a small apple-cranberry crisp and more applesauce.

Paperwhites and Bright Lights cosmos in the street side garden.

Anticipating Little Gem Type Trio lettuce and Black Magic kale.

Anticipating navel oranges and tangerines.

Anticipating heirloom Violetto purple artichoke. More anticipated harvests next week.

Check the What I’m Planting Now page as I transplant and sow seeds for the cool season garden.
