Raw Potential
Just in case you think I have a green thumb, don't be fooled. I just cook the veggies and enjoy the benefits of having a garden. My husband does all the hard work. I snap the pictures and blog about it.
You see basil, I see pesto, served over hot pasta and topped with fish. My kids love it!
Dinnerplate Dahlias. This is my first time to grow these flowers, and I'm not impressed with the appearance of the plant as a whole. I sure hope the flower makes up for it in beauty!
These sweet purple flowers are already starting to form into tiny green beans. The kids will love them!
Just the tiniest of buds appear on our bell pepper plants. That's our stone wall in the background. Don't be jealous. It's one perk of living in a 1940s era house.
Maters. 'Nuf said.
Glorious squash flowers, already forming into vegetables.
My husband propagated these hydrangeas from our "mother" plant, which was given to us as a housewarming gift nearly 8 years ago. It, too, was propagated from a friend's plant.
Another pretty flower in the garden. This one thinks she's a princess!
Darcy thinks she's a princess too.
And so does Daisy.
Happy May Day!
It’s nice to have a garden where you can plant some edible plants. It’s a big help because you can cook a delicious meal out of the fresh plants that you harvest in your yard. Anyway, your husband did a great job in your garden! The hydrangea looks very beautiful.
