Your plant nemesis

We all have at least one. It's that plant that you try to grow and grow, but for some reason or another, it just dies or doesn't bloom or doesn't grow any vegetables.

What plant do you consider your nemesis?

Turnips are easier than radishes, you say? Interesting. I do like Hakurei, and had mostly written off turnips as "won't be any better than radishes."

I thought the same thing - they're pretty much radishes, right? But no, they've been totally reliable for me (the Hakurei, anyway, I haven't tried any of the longer season storagey ones). And my daughter loves them. They're one of the things she specifically requested to grow in her little patch this year.
