山蘿蔔

Was skeptical about winter gardening, but these seeds sprouted quickly in my south-facing window and the anise flavor really livens up my salads.

Planted these in a small pot on my kitchen windowsill back in February and they sprouted within a week. The anise flavor is subtle but really livens up a simple salad.

The flavor is exactly what I wanted—that sharp, peppery bite that perks up a plain salad. I planted it in early fall and it handled the shorter days without any fuss, which was a pleasant surprise.
