Our vegetables flowering a lot sooner.

We dont grow many..., Only 10 plants on the vegetable bed and a few more in clay pot. So they never miss from our scrutiny during morning and evening gardening chore, watering....

But when they start flowering, it suddenly become our focal point and the neighbours too. Nobody else grow vegetable as a no ending adventure in the neighborhood except this "my little vegetable garden".

So our sawi or choy sum or Brassica chinensis var. oleifere is definitely flowering.... yellow little blooms.... A couple of days ago, Kakdah took one plant for her fried meehoon...

  3. Bangchik & Kakdah, you have great pictures of vegetable flowers. I love to eat sawi with flowers attached. The yellow and green colour will look nice on a plate of stir fried sawi. Yes, I'm going to eat sawi with wonton noodles for breakfast today.Cheers!

  4. I have been leaving some of my veggies to go to flower and seed this year. The brassicas particularly have wonderful yellow flowers that the pollinating insects adore! I hope yours have been doing the same.

    We basically use the green leaves to cook. It is alright to add the flowers....
    Brassica is interesting due to its zest towards life!!

    So your wantan noodles must be nice ... that reminds me of FJL's [Keningau blogger] question, whats the heaviest vegetable in the world.... TUTAN!!... sabah local delicacy. And the heaviest and most satisfying noodle in the world will have to be WANTAN!! = one tonne.

    I dont know when the pollinating come and do their pollinating chores. It must early part the day, right Matron?
