Chris, Lisa, and Mary are productive pickers. Lots of stories are told in the blueberry bushes. A glorious day. |
Red and orange beets. |
Colorful radishes. |
Sweet onions. |
Curly kale. |
Flat leave kale. |
A bountiful cart full of nutritious food. |
Lunch time. Iced coffee time, too. |
Anna made a delicious "fresh from the garden" pasta salad. Only the olives, feta, and pasta weren't picked just then. Soooo good. |
A variety of peppers. |
Dad planted many roses that Mom loved. |
Such a clear white rose. Delicate looking. |
Many colors: yellow-orange-tangerine-melon. |
This rose seemingly changes color before your eyes. |
Sometimes looking white, sometimes looking yellow on the inner petals. |
Even the bee is treading lightly on the delicate rose. This one has a yellow blush to it. |
Old fashioned roses, what a fragrant beauty. |
So many pretties. |
Yarrow to the left, foxglove at the bottom, join in with the roses. |
This rose is almost is too perfect to look real. |
Dad loved sweet peas. The backyard always smelled delicately scented. These are from seeds we saved last fall from plants he planted last summer. Memories. |
Roses, butterfly bush and another flower we haven't been able to identify. Little surprises keep popping up. |
Roses and Chinese Astilbe. |
4 boxes heading home. A wonderfully fragrant car. |
Sweet peas nestled in with lavender, kale and chives. |
Guess what? An actual butterfly on a butterfly bush. |
A butterfly bush has a tubular flower, perfect for the build of a butterfly. This one snacked for several minutes. I was thrilled! |
