Yes, so far just three spears. There are several more visible already, but they won't be ready for a few days yet.
So for the time being we have to make do with more PSB. I expect everyone will be mightily relieved when my garden stops producing PSB...
PSB "Red Arrow"
These spears are mostly from one of the two "Early Purple Sprouting" plants - ironically the last of my four varieties to mature!
I am particularly proud of this head of "Red Arrow" broccoli. It is huge!
This is the main growing-point of the plant. When disassembled it will produce about a dozen decent spears.
Other than the above, the only produce to come out of my garden this week has been a load of Parsley and some Chives. The Parsley is particularly fine at present, so we have been using a lot of it. We have so much of it that at the weekend I gave a big bag of it to my daughter Emma. Preserving surplus Parsley is not easy. When dried it is utterly tasteless, and when frozen it goes mushy.We do actually have a big bag of it in the freezer ("for emergencies"), but we seldom use any of it - especially if we have any fresh.
Linking up with Harvest Monday, hosted on Daphne's Dandelions....
