Nasturti-yummy!

One thing I learned this year: Nasturtiums are not necessarily an annual plant - one that I had in a pot in the wintergarden is now already blooming happily, and I've been enjoying the flowers a lot.



You could see some more of the flowers in the picture if they weren't so damn tasty! I've been eating quite a few already, and I am now hoping for many, many more.

In case you've never had the experience of eating a nasturtium flower, it's hard to describe. You have both the flowery sweetness of the flower (thank you, Captain Obvious) and the sharp, mustard-like tang of the leaves, but without the leafy texture. That is just the flower and the crunchy crispness of the flower stem, with the tangy juice coming out. If you have the chance, try it.

I've not been as successful with some other gardening things - my Ecuador Purple chili seeds all have lost their will to sprout, so I need to find somewhere to get new seeds. I've also been unlucky with the last Angel Beans, sadly. Does this mean I have an excuse to do some seed-shopping? Hmm....

Chili plants can also survive for more than one year if you let them stay in house during the winter. Our Madamme Jeannette hot pepper plants are in their third year now.

I like tiger lilies myself; they taste "just like sweet lettuce" as a friend of mine once said. More on "tiger lilies", or day lilies as they are more commonly called, here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylily

I've never had these, but that sounds very delicious!
