I'm sitting here with a vintage gardening book in my lap (1970's), 12 Month's Harvest. It's got it all. I think I need to blog about it instead of take up your comments space but you might like it. Stay tuned (freezer pics are up).K Quinnhttp://www.homemakingorganized.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4230664367733655045.post-48564769390928149982011-08-18T16:31:08.822-04:002011-08-18T16:31:08.822-04:00Kathleen--You are RIGHT!

There was nothing at the root and they looked like they were bolting.<br /><br />They didn't have the leggy stems like the other brussels sprouts plants that I have, so I don't think they were brussels.<br /><br />I think I got a couple of "other" plants when I picked up the flat of cruciferous plants. Even the nursery folks couldn't figure out what it was.<br /><br />We may never know...Roxannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05633120497088511282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4230664367733655045.post-27478252778885365122011-08-12T17:44:05.584-04:002011-08-12T17:44:05.584-04:00I see NO shame in you not labeling your plants.

Maybe some are perennials that won't bloom until next year! I think it's a great idea.
