Can I assume them to grow in 120+ degrees?

John, your veggies aren't that appetizing and I prefer to grow better varieties of spinach when it's suppose to be grown and blanch and freeze it. But for some reason your videos point out little known interesting things and I find your presentations down to earth and entertaining, especially with the light curse words added. Keep up the good work!

what grows in the high desert at this time of I plant tomorrow with compost and plant food

I've grown the Malabar Spinich as a house plant, it's still just as dark green as yours outside & grows like crazy fast.

The Red Hybiscus is the one we use here in Hawaii to make Hybiscus Tea, the one with the pretty pink color. Beautiful & you can mix other flavors with it like differnt fruits or mint, whatever you like.

Where is "here" ? You never say what area you're living in....?
