more april 8th photos







just some photos that wouldn't fit with the last post...top one is the rouge jeruasalem artichoke....roots and all...i put it with the others...so not one of the jerusalem artichokes i dug up thirteen days ago when i called an official end tot he first storage experiment had anything remotely resembling roots...the were still crisp and they cooked up nicely...the ones i left in the ground, either accidently or prurposefully, haven't wasted any time after being signaled that the time was here to begin the reproductive imperative...i'd wish them luck but they are relentless...no need...that stick by my left ring finger is the beginning of the second year of growth of that particular chinese yam...more aerial bulbs! i still have over 400 from last year...i am the chinese yam baron of n w indiana...i took a picture of the Zea diploperennis seed package just to document my optimism...and the bottom photo is the garden on campus as i left it at 10:00 a m...i'll be back to check on things sunday
