種植唐蒿 Growing Garland Chrysanthemum

　　去年8月播了唐蒿的種子，吃到10 月，冬天停止了生長，到春天又再甦醒過來，3、4月逐少逐少地再吃了幾遍，朋友告訴我這「凌遲」的過程是令唐蒿長得越來越壯的要訣。5月起我沒有再收割，讓它抽苔開花，打算留些種子今年秋天再種植。它們長出來的花朵，為花園增加不少色彩呢！

　　老公本來不喜歡吃唐蒿，但新鮮採摘的唐蒿，鮮嫩美味，改變了他的印象！

　　每次跟人分享唐蒿的照片，得到的回應都是「打邊爐一流！」我們不經常打邊爐，但用它煮麵加上什丸，倒也像吃小火煱！

　　I sowed a handful of Garland Chrysanthemum in August last year and continued harvesting them until when they stopped growing in October due to the cold weather. As spring arrived this year, they sprouted back to life. In March and April, I continued to harvest them bit by bit. A friend told me that regularly harvesting them is the secret to growing robust Garland Chrysanthemum. In May, I stopped harvesting to let the plant bolt and flower, so that I can save some seeds for planting them again this autumn. The flowers they produce add a lot of colour to the garden!

　　In the past, my husband didn’t like Garland Chrysanthemum, but the freshly-picked leaves are so tender and delicious that they have changed his impression!

　　Every time I shared photos of Garland Chrysanthemum, the response I received would be “perfect for hot pot!” We don’t have hot pot often, but noodles with mixed fish balls and Garland Chrysanthemum do look like a mini hot pot!
