    I honestly didn't think anything would grow! I seem to remember poking bits into any nearby occupied pot with a bit of bare soil showing. Who knows what I'll find in the spring?

  • How lovely and unusual!  When it grows to a decent size, invite me to dinner! :)

    Great 👍 my only concern is that since the bok choy is now in its second season of growth it’ll quickly put up a flower spike and then run to seed rather than providing you with much of a meal ... but it’ll be fun to watch 😊 

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    That's a bit of a bummer!
    But, as you say, I shall have the fun of watching it grow and, may be, even free seeds.  Win-win??  :)

    I always stick my celery in a jug with a little water, like a vase of flowers.  This time it managed to grow roots!



    I'm an ....amazing photographer, I know! 🤣
