YES THOSE ARE FROM MY GARDEN!!!

Check out a few pictures (to the right) of some of our gorgeous flowers this year. The yellow rose was a new investment and I am so pleased. The Spectacular Canterbury Bells were a great surprise from seeds that I planted last year from a mixed variety wildflower package....from the Dollar Store! This plant is a biennial, so we were pleasantly surprised when it bloomed. Regretfully, it won't be back next year, but I've already ordered seeds to plant now so we'll have 3 more in different colors. This particular plant blooms twice in immediate succession. The blooms are so particular and perfect, they look fake. What a beauty!! The Chorus Line Lilly is a re- bloomer from last year. Of course, I can hardly wait till my Casablanca Lilly blooms. It is my favorite. I'll share a picture when it graces our garden. Our strawberries are little, but they are better than any I've had from the grocery these past few years. I've got my eye on one big green tomato that has my name on it. The first tomato of the season ends up in a dusting of flour and cornmeal and into the oil. Fried Green Tomatoes!! Surely one of the signs of summer.
The okra is growing, along with the zucchini, eggplant, crook neck squash, bell peppers, cubanelle peppers and romas. With our wet spring, we have a much better beginning that last year. I love summer!!!

I'm coming back in a day or two with a zucchini dish and my Fried Green Tomato recipe.
