Plant of the Day
Saturday 2 March 2024
A member of the brassica family Brassica rapa var. nipposinica (mizuna, Asian greens, Japanese mustard greens, California pepper grass, spider mustard) can grow with protection through the winter. The feathery leaves have a mild mustard flavour which are sweet enough for salads and older leaves can be cooked like spinach. This biennial plant was in its second year and so was producing flowers.

Did you know that certain types of salad plants can be grown year round here in southern England? This is our "leaf table" in the ye olde greenehouse, which supports a variety of fresh tasty salad plants during the winter. By keeping the plants in a greenhouse, they are protected from frost and intense rains. The green "curtains" in the corner are agricultural cloth blankets we place over the pots on the coldest nights. The south-facing side of the greenhouse receives maximum light and warmth on short winter days, helping the plants maintain a slow but steady growth rate. Unfortunately, due to the short day lengths and low temperatures, the plants grow much slower than in the spring and summer so we must harvest them conservatively.
Some garden plant species I recommend for winter salad cultivation are shown in the photos following the main view of the table.
Tat Soi (Brassica rapa var. rosularis) and Pak Choi (Brassica rapa subsp. chinensis). The Tat Soi are the dark green plants with rounded leaves and the Pak Choi are the plants with oval pale green leaves. Both of these East Asian traditional cabbage varieties can be allowed to mature into large plants or picked regularly to keep them small.
Komatsuna (Brassica rapa var. perviridis). This petite cabbage variety comes from Japan and has a crunchy texture.
Mizuna ( Brassica rapa var. niposinica). I was surprised that the spiky Mizuna is the same species as the other leaves. Unlike the mellow leaves, it has a spicy arugula-like flavour. I recently learned that Mizuna is among the plants astronauts have grown on the International Space Station!
Our final plant is NOT a Brassica rapa! This plant is called Miner's Lettuce (Claytonia perfoliata). This dainty plant comes from mountain and coastal regions of North America and Central America, and is named because gold miners in California ate this plant to prevent scurvy, a vitamin C deficiency disease.

Hmmm I think I know most of your Izuna ship opinions so: what about Izuna/Mito?
OHHH HELL YEAH THANK YOU FOR ASKING
Whether I ship it or not
YES PLS
Why I ship it or not
Listen. They're both characters with very few panels each despite both having SO MUCH impact on the plot. I think they should smooch and be very p(r)etty together
My opinion on their canon potential (chemistry, canon interactions, etc)
...........
My opinion on fanon interpretations/fandom around it (Favorite widespread hcs, pet-peeves, etc)
uhhhh there's not much i think??? I love them both as political AND fighting powerhouses. Also it's funny when Izuna is attracted to someone who's kicking his ass (though this can be overdone so like, in small doses). They're both good at emotional manipulation and should do it together after trying it out on each other first. Everyone should be afraid of them
Actually I'm using this opportunity to shamelessly yell about some of my Izuna/Mito plot bunnies while I have you all here sorry there's no stopping me now
undercover AU where Izuna, for mission reason, is disguised as a civilian smith on a ship that gets attacked by pirates. The ship is rescued by Uzumaki shinobi before Izuna reveals himself but because the Uzumaki are super secretive about where they live everyone on the ship is now gently kidnapped to Uzushio. Izuna goes along with it because he is NOT about to blow his cover in the middle of the damn ocean surrounded by a dozen Uzumaki. Shenanigans where the Uzumaki princess finds this talented smith who's WAY too comfortable around shinobi both very sus and charming while Izuna is like WELP I MIGHT JUST TRY TO FLIRT MY WAY OUT OF THIS. Months pass and then Uzushio is attacked by a biju. Izuna is halfway through escaping Uzushio in the chaos, but then he has a sudden case of Conscience (tm) because he started to care and while he has no doubt Mito-hime will probably save the day he's like... what if I... just help a little bit... feat. Mito going "I need you to hold the biju still for as long as you can" and Izuna all "for you I'll hold it forever" and then he Susanoo's the shit out of the biju before finding out he could also have just used genjutsu. RIP. Anyway Mito goes FUCK I'M INTO THIS
female!Izuna/Mito. In this one Izuna is pretending to be her father's son for Very Specific Reasons and one day she runs into Mito on the battlefield and has the ubiquitious bi experience of "Do I want to BE her or do I want her to step on me?!?!?!" (both, Izuna, it's both.)

2022 year in review: mizuna!
A new plant for me this year. I received mizuna seeds as my free gift from this spring's Baker Creek order. It's a Japanese green, good in salads and cooked in dishes. I personally find it delightful in a salad with some french dressing.
