OUT with the OLD, and IN with the NEW!
I just love Perpetual spinach. Whatever you do the first year it will not bolt (send all energy into centre stalk and go to seed). There are many spinaches one can grow. This one is a bi-annual like most chard, carrots, beets etc, but handles the cold very well and as you can see has a great performance in the spring. Slugs dont seem to mow it down either.
If anyone has a recipe for eating chard/spinach roots let me know! I have some the size of small footballs.
