Spinach surprise!!!!
🕑 Added 2021-04-15 16:34:01 +0000 UTCI’ve been playing a guessing game with a few of my plants because the sun bleached out the markers.
I could not figure out this plant for the life of me because it was too small to photograph and identify on my plant identifier app.
Finally when I came back from old San Juan yesterday evening I saw how big it was and I was able to finally identify it.
It’s Australian spinach! I’m finding out that kale and spinach grow really well out here in the tropics. Planting more is definitely in my plans.
It’s such an interesting history of farming on the island. So many plants grow incredibly well out here yet there are so few farmers. Why?
Take a look at this article on farming and the Jones act in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷

My friends here are all too damn good with their green thumbs. They teach me so much that I’m excited to try new things because they have tried it all before and have the experience 🌺
