Sometimes I get tired of the same old plants. I wasn’t planning on bringing these inside, but this one had because of rain and cooler temps started forming a crown of buds and won my heart again. So I brought them all in.
The cooler it gets the more colorful they become. I have planted ornamental cabbage in past years but the hard frosts took them out. I thought I would give this frilly kale a try this year to see if it is hardier. I’m sure they would have a better chance if they weren’t so recently planted. We will see what happens. It is supposed to freeze tonight.
and turned on its side looks like a bloodshot eye. Thus, the name Bloodshot Eye Pumpkin. Every year there is something new and unusual in the Cucurbits it seems. Maybe, I could make a cyclops for Halloween since I only have one.
