First Ostrich Ferns up…
I was surprised to find these Ostrich Ferns / Strutseving almost over this morning in Leangenbukta (Trondheim)! I had checked the ones in my garden last night and there was no sign of the fiddleheads yet! This is the earliest I’ve ever seen fiddleheads here!
Norway has enormous amounts of fiddleheads that only a few people harvest….they should be boiled for 15 minutes or steamed for10 minutes to kill any pathogens.

Diversity of Nordic horseradish
A Swedish PhD thesis concludes that there is large variation in the properties of horseradish found in plant collections in the Nordic countries (old naturalised and garden accessions). The diversity is large both in chemical content, form and appearance and DNA. This is somewhat surprising for a vegetatively propagated plant!

Article in Permakultur magazine
The latest Nordic Permaculture Magazine, out on Friday includes an article about:
“Permakulturhave (Permaculture Garden)
Høj diversitet (High diversity)
Højt mod nord (Far to the North)”
I wonder where that might be ;-)
