The Garden of Bogturtle

  Crocosmia 'Diablo'. Becoming quite an expert at what plants deer will leave alone, at least here. And, of course, a starving deer would eat anything it could. Full time concern whether the plants have been sprayed, and now we have recurrent rains that wash it off. Crocosmia seems not a choice of deer, even inexperienced fawns.  A local market sells veggies and fruit at a reasonable price, in quantities not practical to me, and from all over the World. All Nationalities are shopping there and finding familiar food I never saw before. This is a Daicon Radish the Japanese grow, and I think its the first time I tried to grow it, myself. They probably eat the greens, also. I am surprised how well it grew. My vegetable garden, with too much shade, is not great. I probably could have bought this cheaper than it cost to grow, and definitely with much less labor. And with less strange satisfaction.
