Daily Botanical: Lettuce Wishes
The ‘Mascara’ lettuce that I left in to bolt and produce seeds is now doing its thing. This particular variety self-seeded from one plant, sprouting in containers all over the roof garden this spring so I can only imagine what will happen next year considering that I’ve allowed 6 of them to go, every one towering sky-high with little seedy puffs.

Well I dearly hope some of those darling puffs find their way onto a breeze that takes them all the way to my Connecticut garden :)
