Garden Update

My next door neighbor asked if I'd be setting up a flower stand anytime soon, and I'd have to agree - we are definitely in full bloom! Look at all the beautiful colors:


Here is my fragrant Sweet William. I still can't believe it grew from seed. In the front are my herbs and a flourishing lavender, which I plan to pot and take back with me to Seattle. After I finished weeding and taking photos, I picked a beautiful bouquet of the Sweet William, a few peonies and some chive blossoms.


My arugula, lettuce, beets and carrots are coming up nicely. Here they are before I thinned them:


And here, the spring greens salad from the thinning, including beet greens. So delicious and fresh!
