Here in urban/suburban land it's still something of a rarity, but we're working on it.<br /><br />I just listed you on my blog today.<br /><br />Your choices are more exotic than mine, I believe, at least for my area!Stefaneenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08422241601075022500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157796120640152479.post-53670533164267808592009-05-19T08:01:00.000-07:002009-05-19T08:01:00.000-07:00Your purple crambe maritimia looks great.

I have some seedlings of it coming along this year (no variety name) which doing well, though I don't know if they'll be hardy here.<br />Funny about the rumex/blood sorrel. I have had a patch of it several years and just a couple of weeks ago yanked it out of one of the gardens proper (prime real estate). I was going to banish it all together, but I found a good outlying "empty spot" in heavy shade for it. It may be just me, but I found the leaves rather bland for a sorrel, and I'm not knocked out by the leaf texture palate-wise. I prefer our wild sheep sorrel (Rumex acetosella)to eat. That said, the color and its durability is nice; and I think I'm warming up to it more in its new location...Leighhttp://www.theextremegardener.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157796120640152479.post-21390731042661969172009-05-19T05:42:00.000-07:002009-05-19T05:42:00.000-07:00Wow a perennial ground cherry.

In the US people harvest them in the wild all the time. Of course that is assuming that we call the same plant ramps.Daphnehttp://daphnesdandelions.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157796120640152479.post-68893014402340888652009-05-19T03:55:00.000-07:002009-05-19T03:55:00.000-07:00Thank you for stopping by my blog.

They're not illegal to harvest south of the border. I hope to start a colony in my own back yard some day.<br /><br />You mentioned many others that aren't yet familiar to me but sound very interesting.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00500390722832190990noreply@blogger.com
