I admired them at the "other" place that we farm. They grew up along the foundations there and I fell in love with those brilliant blue little flowers. THEN I saw that they make nice robust seed, so I started harvesting whenever we were down there. I sprinkled them along my foundation on one side. WHEWEEE They have taken over! Their leaves and stems look a lot like Wandering Jew plants, except green. So now I pull them whenever I see them in my bee balm or coreopsis, They are happy at my place!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-143376326999360810.post-44186511951085333822014-08-20T16:45:29.903-04:002014-08-20T16:45:29.903-04:00I'm actually going to can them.

She uses them to make salsas and sauces._emily_rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044004465736417388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-143376326999360810.post-66804720630829386602014-08-20T15:38:40.646-04:002014-08-20T15:38:40.646-04:00I just put up some jars of diced tomatoes.
