The 'Garden' part of the Garden Blog

The heart of the garden


The tall golden plant is quinoa and there are hops against the barn
The Garden Gate (that I made! my first gate!)

Loki cruising stealthily by the dahlia, basil, kale zone.


A Very Fancy kale.

Artichoke flowers. This is what happens if you don't harvest them to eat; they bloom! And the bees absolutely love them.
Rhubarb emerging.

Hermetron amongst the ripening apples.

This sunflower is ready for a rest! How about on top of the bee hive?

Hermes and the Cinderella Pumpkins. (Should be a rock band!)

A great reading spot in the garden.

The entrance-way, as seen through the medieval look-out portal in the gate.
Hermes dashing by the cacti and succulents garden.


Blooming succulent


Elderberries

Scarlett Runner Bean flowers

Purple Peruvian Corn

Scarlett Runner Beans..aka a map of the Galaxy!

Bug streaking along the upper path.
