Hi Mlassi, nice photos!

The long palm-like leaves are Molineria capitulata. It is a member of the Lily Family, and gets a flower head with many little yellow blooms on it. It is native from India across Southeast Asia and northern Queensland, Australia.

ty ty for the plant id. I havent noticed any flowers but again maybe my elevation doesnt allow it to flower. Its kinda of in an ignored part of the yard so I may have missed them too.

Nice pictures mlassi, I wish I could grow veggies and herbs as well as you do, I have a tough time with them at my non-elevation!

Great lettuce. If I grew those outside they would be white from all the leaf hoppers sucking the goodness out!!!!
