weekly update - August 4 Art in the garden


Chas is always jumping in to water before I get any work done in the garden and this week was no exception.  We did not get much rain this week, so as a result the weeds are more tame.

I was feeling rather artsy as I took pictures this week.  Besides there was no weeding to do so I had some time on my hands as he hogged the watering wand.  Here are a few close ups of the plants:

A single sunflower, but more are on the way!

Christmas Lima Bean pods, not beans yet
Zinnias (the flower of the Men's Garden Club of Villa Park)

Traditional Hyssop pollinators love it!
mustard seed

Celeriac or root celery

Calendula

Artful watering!
