What is [still] producing in your fall garden?

bella bell peppers, just now bouncing back from our torrid summer… imo, peppers deserve more square footage than tomatoes in vegas, since tomatoes are like a buck for 3 lbs, and peppers are richer in nutrients

mexican green onions --my favorite perennial/year-round edible ornamental, apart from variegated calamondins, Cold weather slows down growth, but the spears don’t get mushy, even in sub-freezing temps

standard calamondin with both fruits and flowers. Mondins(both standard and blonde) are a must-have in vegas. They don’t grow as fast as lime and lemons, but what little stems they grow over the summer, they keep over the winter. Limes/lemons/oranges may grow two feet in one growing season, but often die back. Mondins take one step forward in summer and don’t step back in winter, whereas many others take 5 steps forward, then 6 steps back :thinking:

tree collard, its greens should be less bitter now due to cool weather

this blonde mondin does not have nutritional deficiencies, it is inherently variegated (aka peters calamondin). Slower-growing than standard mondin, but more cold-hardy
