Carrot in Bloom


I had a carrot flower and I was looking forward to saving the seeds.  It froze before the seeds finished developing.  It is a pretty flower anyway.

Carrots usually take 2 years to bloom.  I have lots of carrots in the ground still.  I will harvest them as I need them all winter.  I will save a few to flower and produce seeds next year also.

As a side note.  I don't have any lettuce seeds again this year.  I left the bag that the seeds could drop into attached to the plant for too long.  It was full of bugs that had a great feast and didn't leave a single seed.  Note to self:  You have done the same thing for two years in a row.  Don't do that again next year. 😊
