j2davis2005: Harvest my first banana leaf for cooking fish
j2davis2005: Good thing I harvested the banana leaf earlier. Now all the leaves are shredded... 🍃🌴 #growsomethinggreen #growfoodnotlawns #growfoodnotlawn #monsoonseason #epicyardfarm #ediblegarden #bananaleaf #urbangarden
j2davis2005: Had fun cooking salmon in the banana leaf! Going to try other recipes now I have done it once, especially a couple of Northern Thailand street food dishes, especially, Aeb (āšā¸­āšŠā¸š)! #epicyardfarm #ediblegarden #bananaleaf #urbangarden #growyourown #growfood
j2davis2005: Also really enjoy our volunteer sweet basil plants. All self seeded, we just let them come up whenever they decide the conditions are right, strong healthy plants every time! I like to keep a few to flower, so the bees have something to feed on. #epicyard
j2davis2005: I spy banana flower bud!
j2davis2005: Orinoco banana flowered and now hanging on the neighbor's side of the wall
j2davis2005: Carrie mango has slight tint of yellow on the three fruit. But does not have the mango fragrance yet. Wonder if I should wait a little more before harvest, or pick now and ripen on counter top. #growfoodnotlawns #growsomethinggreen #tropicalgarden #carrie
