Useless 'Facts'

isn't artichoke perennial?

Sea kale?.

Apart from being ornamental and edible, perennial vegetables can serve other functions around the house such as view screens (Pacific spinach, moringa), ground covers (sweet potato, bitter melon), and edge plants as a barrier to weeds (sissoo spinach, garlic chives). Many of these plants have medicinal as well as culinary utility (comfrey, moringa).

Rhubarb is perennial, but is it a vegetable?

Jerusalem artichokes ,Horseradish.Egyptian onion, bunching onions, garlic. radicchio is a perennial if it's not dug up for the blanching process.

Peppers are perennial, becoming good-sized shrubs over time. But you would need to be in a zone where they survive winter. (but are they veg?)

Rhubarb is a herb isn't it?

dunno, it has stems and leaves and tuber things ..... just like errrrr potatoes innit

Wow thanks, I'm going to have writer's cramp....or whatever it is you get from using a keyboard too much.

just copy and paste it

rhubarb is used like a fruit and a vegetable, its a funny one.

Rhubarb is a fruit to me very much like a tomato is a vegetable.

That's WAY too technical for the likes of me. If I had my way we'd still be painting on cave walls.

I think chillies are technically fruit too, but I don't think they'd go down well in a fruit salad.

lol. it's easy, put your mouse cursor at the end of the sentence, hold the left mouse button down and drag the mouse over what you want to copy.

when it's all highlighted, let the left mouse button up, and press the right mouse button and a little window will pop up. click on copy with your left mouse button.

then on the email or whatever, put the cursor where you want it again, then right click and click on paste ...... voila its all there in 5 mouse clicks

Tomatoes are perennial.

but tomatoes are officially a fruit aren;t they?

And in years like this they struggle to even be an annual.
