Oh my goodness I am super excited. I have tried for so long to get this crop to germinate. I often look to my pantry inspiration and have successfully grown popcorn, peanuts, chickpeas and kidney beans, among other things. It is always good to grow things you eat a lot of
And so when I went into the greenhouse today I was so delighted to find my latest project has come up and I’m looking forward to the harvest – we eat a lot of pasta!
Come again soon – April is a month full of fun things.

Maybe they are from the same family as these spaghetti trees https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVo_wkxH9dU
I think they are from a variety of these trees bred to have a twist in the branches. : o)
If I was a foolish type I might eat this up without any marinara. But since I had a chicken patty for lunch I will leave the pasta for those with less discretion.
I’m beginning to wonder what else I can grow from my kitchen cupboards! : o)
Did anyone take the bait?
It did go a little crazy on my Facebook page! It was fun to watch. : o)
I wanted to pull an elaborate one but instead I worked outside in greenhouse and yard to the tune of 28,626 Fitbit steps
I always knew that you were a great gardener, now unmistaken proof.
Oh you are too kind! : o)
I had to stop by and say this is excellent! Look out for the lesser spotted fusilli mite though. I have real problems with them around the leftovers in my kitchen.
I find a spray made with garlic, chilli, crushed basil leaves and tomato juice work well on the lesser spotted fusilli mite! : o)
Nice one! LOL!
Thought you were feeding escargots.
That would make a great decoy crop… : o)
I’ve been so nervous about my daughter’s Grade 1 piano exam (nervous mummy in waiting room right now) it took me a while to remember it is April Fool’s Day!!
Hi Helen. I’m pleased I could provide a bit of light relief. I hope your daughter did well in her piano exam. : o)
We will know in a few weeks but I am sure it will be fine. Thank you, Sarah 😊
