Hey folks,
Am interested in something in particular, but please feel free to post anything (questions, pictures -- show off your stuff -- opinions, etc.) regarding this topic.
For me, I am interested in growing my own saffron. And not simply because of its relative cost, but because I want to know that I'm actually consuming real saffron. There's a shop I've been buying from for years, a good, trusted bunch of folks who sell it. Thing is, I live in the southeast of the U.S., and I'm not sure about a lot of things regarding growing it. Now, perhaps I can grow it here with the right amount of love and attention, but does it continue to grow? Can I spread it where it will continue to yield year after year?
Thanks, and enjoy!
And for some visual appeal, here are some apple trees, a fig tree, and a pecan tree my wife and I planted some years back (purchased from the same folks I mentioned):
