Only if annual field weeds such as orach or unscented camomile threaten to choke the culture, it will be necessary to mulch or mow the area. |
To the side I heaped up a pile of purple orach, and of course we set out piles of business cards and brochures along with an open photo album. |
It feeds in July and August on orach, persicaria, knot-grass, and will also eat dock. |
Spinach was a better green vegetable than the goosefoots, sorrels, orach, and similar plants which were widely used in medieval Europe, and gradually usurped their place. |
This fresh picked basket of red orach is headed to the kitchen where it will be cooked like spinach. |
The orach produces an abundance of seeds and is a hardy plant, making it a good choice to share with other gardeners. |
