This is the first time I noticed this. Pretty neat looking to me this is my Black Unknown as the leaf develops the red is gone. I believe this tree came from Sicily, Linguaglossa or Piedimonte Etneo area
( The name Linguaglossa derives from the ancient term Linguagrossa, referring to a "grossa lingua di lava" (a big tongue of lava). The first inhabited center goes back to 1145 and, in time, it belonged to the noble families Crisafi, Cottone, and Patti. Afterwards, it became a possession of the Bonanno family until 1634, when the town was annexed to the Royal property and it acquired its autonomy.)
Piedimonte Etneo (In 1687, the name was changed into Piedimonte Etneo by its founder Ferdinando Gravina, because the town was situated at the foot of the homonymous volcano.  
Anyway sorry to bore you Here are a few pics with some of my new additions in 3 gal pots and of course my veggie garden which has exploded this past week. I need more room how many truck loads do you think it would take to fill up the cement pond ;o)
Sal 

I have seen it before, but it is not common.

Hi Sal ,
that plant is nice and the leaf looks pretty darn close to one of my plants .
I look forward one day to see the fruit outside and inside and you description of its taste.

I thought the redness in your Negretta does not disappear like this (fast),

Sal, I like the picture with the red veins. I've got 3 of these(yours starting to grow really well in the cups. Seems to be a  vigorous variety.

In the first picture of your garden, what is the row of plants down the middle just to the left of the tomatoes? Looks like eggplant, but not sure. That garden has doubled in growth in the last week, huh? Beautiful garden and the figs look great too!

It does disappear eventually as leaves keep growing , just brought plants in now and i do not see any red in leaves now.  The reddish color "appears in the stems" and seems to stay there till end of season or at least thru end of august from my pictures i posted last season. My others Dr portuguese and VdB lose the red veins very quick and i have yet to see the reddish stems on those. I would post pictures but dont want to bust in on Sals thread.

Tim, I think what you're referring to is Collard Greens.

The other leafy row with shiny big leaves appears to be Swiss Chard, which is something I rarely see people grow, but we're addicted to.  I actually like it more than collards/turnip greens/mustard greens.

I love swiss chard, i notice his type has the red stems something i never tried as i grow the regular . I like to pick the leaves when there smaller its to bad im the only one that eats them in family.
Butter , fresh smashed garlic  salt and pepper to taste sauted in pan -- its a nice !
Sal you garden is very nice.

the one we typically grow has the red stems.  We grew a pack of 'rainbow' variety some years ago, but we seem to like the red the best.  I like to pick it when it is about 1/4 the size of the largest one in Sal's pictures, take some linguica, break it up, throw it in a pot with some olive oil and diced tomato with lemon juice, cook it down, and throw chard in at the last 2-3 minutes.  Paired with a good french bread grilled with olive oil, it's ... wow.   Tasty!

And I concur with Martin, the neatness and organization of your garden is terribly impressive.  I'm impressed!

nice garden.  just beautiful :).

Thanks to all Yes that is Swiss card (bight lights) I cooked some last night and it was so tender a little EVO fresh garlic and onion sauteed drop chard  2 minutes done I like a little butter and some fresh lemon boy it was good. Jason I also like it with sausage

I keep forgetting you're in florida....

Beautiful Sal,  My Chieti gets reddish like that also Martins Negretta.  I make S.chard same way, love it soo much, so good for the body.We also grow kale and spinach, shame noone else in your family eats this good green stuff Martin, We grew up eating this food, thats why we are strong.  I feel bad for the future older folks, they will be strings from not eating such good food like we did! :))

I assume sal, you had to have alot of earth delivered for this garden as the soil is maybe sandy where you are, this will be a problem when we are in Florida with our soil being sandy there for my veg garden.
Ciao

Maggie yes you are correct a lot of compost I purchased bags from HD about 220 bags 1cu ft I also amended with SPM and some other stuff the Florida Gardening Forum on GW is a great help and the soil is different in different parts of State your local AG office might be of some help when you are ready

Sal nice pics, thats how my Fig from Colasanti Farms was growing too red veins in the beginning then It would turn green. First year I have mine so not sure if its common on that fig or not but both my plants did this.

Thanks Nelson I had read and seen those pics and that is what inspired this post
