On Saturday, I also cut the first of the Romanesco cauliflowers.  It didn’t seem to be getting bigger, and I didn’t want it to get old and tough while I waited, so I cut it.  

 

It measures almost 5 inches across.  The seed catalog said 7, but I’m not greedy.  Besides I planted 6 or 7 of them.  

 

Can’t wait to try it.  Curious, isn’t it?  Each one of those little spikes is like a baby cauliflower stem.

 

Maybe I will leave one in the garden to go to seed.  That should be interesting.

 

HAPPY GARDENING!!!
