Purple in the Garden
December 8, 2010
‘Red Oakleaf’ ‘Firecracker’ ‘Anapolis’ and other Lettuces
Our winter garden is bursting with some really great veggies including my purple favorites. Other purple (or at least purplish-red) vegetables that would be good additions (and can still be planted) in winter gardens here in Austin include:
‘Purple Passion’ Asparagus
‘Bull’s Blood’ Beets
‘Ruby Perfection’ Cabbage (and many other ruby varieties)
‘Cosmic Purple’ Carrots
Radicchio
‘Garnet Giant’ Mustard (and many other varieties)
‘Purplette’ Onions (and many other varieties)
‘Red Lasota’ Potatoes
‘Purple Top’ Turnips
And many more!
