It’s time for another edition of Name That Mystery Plant! Readers were able to help me identify a Cornelian Cherry in NYC, a nightshade in my garden, and possibly the mystery yellow tomato I got at a plant swap (though I still think the tomatoes were too big to be yellow pears).

Last night I made a quick post-work trip out to the garden and harvested some arugula and radishes. There are only a couple of red radishes left in the ground, although I have a whole row of watermelon radishes that have yet to fatten up. This is my first time growing radishes, and they have [...]
