The plant in the photo above is Spotted Aleppo, the heirloom variety mentioned in my post of February 18, 2011.I'll be the first to admit that it is not a vary attractive plant, and I was tempted to title this post ancient and ugly.
It is, however, apparent to me that this will be a "do again" variety, to add texture and interest to our menu. It's redeeming qualities are that it grows quickly, and I seriously doubt that any problems such as tip burn, common to less robust varieties, will be an issue with this cultivar.
