Today, I thought I would get up-close to spring by photographing some of the plants currently bursting forth in my garden. Sometimes, we don’t look closely at the beauty around us, but taking the time to do so is really worthwhile.
Alberto Locoto chilli… resprouting in its second year
Sweet potato… this organic tuber was bought to eat, but started sprouting so I kept it
Sprouting potato tuber
Lettuce seedling – variety Forellenschluss from Kate Chiconi
Shallot
Ashmead’s Kernel apple from Karuna
Blueberry flowers
Red currant flowers
Rocket seedlings
Seedlings of Aztec Broccoli
All these plants are edibles – who says you need to grow flowers to have a beautiful garden?
