Cotton

So William has produced!

One boll is opened, the other not yet


John mandeville, writing in 1350, speaks o wool grown on trees, and here is a print from his book. The boughs are flexible enough that the tiny lambs can graze

The seeds are buried in the cotton, in this case there were six in this quarter of the boll





Harvest

A modest one, but yummy

White carrot, alpine strawberry, Portuguese kale
