It was one of the first things we could harvest from the garden (along w/ radishes and lettuce) and we'd peel it and eat it raw with a bit of salt. YUM! Not many folks know what it is in Texas. :) I'd describe it as a cross between cabbage and turnip. Kind of like jicama. Some folks cook it in soups, but I love it raw.<br /><br />I know what you mean about the gumbo soil not growing anything well. In a former place, I tried to grow carrots in some flower beds (that were not very deep). They couldn't grow down as the ground was too hard. You did a great job growing all this without a bigger garden plot!TexWisGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15510099344729038541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8934241482178099189.post-74542760368827049692010-11-13T19:57:53.068-06:002010-11-13T19:57:53.068-06:00Amy,
