Yay! Now that you have the experience with it, I know whom to bug should I end up with questions or worries.

That is a super cool looking plant. How does it taste?
Clenram replied about 1 year ago
It is wonderful.  It seems a little sweeter than the usual and it keeps producing, not like cauliflower.

These did really well for me last year - better than the green ones.

I thought they tasted good too!  I hope they make it this year...

When you make salsa out of them, is it purplish?  I keep thinking that would be fun.

I grew these last year. They were popular at the Lakeshore Farmers Market but the family at home prefers the crossbred variety that I have been saving seeds from.

Have you had good luck direct sowing Tomatillos?  I started a few under lights this year and they got sooooo leggy.  I was thinking they must need more sun than tomatoes starting out so maybe I s... more »

We're foggy up in Kyle.  And I think we must have gotten rain last night.  Sunny down there, Melissa?  
UnusualFarmChick replied about 1 year ago
I'm with Liz. We had our beautiful day yesterday with today filled with rain. Not complaining being the cool weather crops needed the watering. Enjoy your day filled with outdoor smiles.

It is one of the few bought non fruit trees we have.  I keep backing into it with the truck but it survives and has grown slowly!
