Leafy veges

Bok choi and Wild Russian Mustard, sown in mid May. I obtained the seeds of mustard through a seed exchange with a like-minded gardener. Seed swaps are great in motivating one to grow  stranger vegetables one have never tasted before. The mustard leaves have a zingy bitter taste. 

Broad beans

Broad beans were sown around March. They take extremely long to fruit. I noticed that a few stalks have begun to flower yesterday.

Loofah art

   
Patience has its rewards. After leaving a couple of loofah on the vines to dry since late March, they have turned into pieces of art! The idea of using them to scrape oil off dishes seem like a waste...

One loofah yielded around 200 black shiny seeds.
