Plant meet up with my friend and fellow permaculturist Adriano Fabbri today for a plant barter session, catch-up and foodscape walk about at my house!

He has some really fun plants for your foodscapes available now so you should follow him to learn how you get some!

An Asian vegetable and definitely the star of my early June garden is tatsoi! Winter sown in January and has done 1,000x better in ground in full sun than in my garden town in partial.

Per 100g you are getting somewhere around:

3g fiber
2g protein
9900IU (198%) Vitamin A
179mg (217%) Vitamin C
210mg (21%) calcium
1.4mg (8%) iron

One can argue you will get less of more of these vitamins and minerals depending on soil it was grown in…to put it simply…

depleted soil = less nutrition
healthy soil = more

What’s your favorite way to eat tatsoi?

French breakfast radish. The one vegetable I either plant not enough or WAY too many. What’s your version of this in your garden?

Windbreak is 75% in! If you get out your magnifying glass, you can actually see it.

This North American native is a great fit for a pocket prairie style design and is shorter than Echinacea purpurea, so front yard friendly without the “chop”. It’s drought tolerant and likes dry soil so this is not one for your rain garden.

It is also a beautiful medicinal plant that I recommend learning about!

It also goes by “narrow-leaf coneflower”!

If you’re looking for an Indiana native, check out Echinacea pallida.

If you’re in the market, I grew beauties for our plant sale this year - comment PLANT and I’ll send you the link
