So we didn't harvest it quick enough or plant enough of it to have a meal, so we let it bolt. Aaron and I always enjoy seeing flowers in the fall and winter. Here are the beautiful cluster of yellow flowers from the bolted baby bok choy.
I think that Aarons enjoyment of seeing flowers this time of year stems from the years he lived in Alaska. When there are 24 hours of sunlight the pansies get HUGE!!!!
And I just love seeing the colors and shapes!
SIDE NOTE:
After greens (collards, lettuce, spinach, basil) bolt the leaves are way to bitter to munch on - I think its best to just leave the plant in place and admire.
