Botanical art, garden craft, toys, downloads, shop, fun…
Two of the dwarf cherry tomato varieties I am growing on the roof are coming in full force these days.
The yellow are ‘Yellow Pygmy’ and I believe the red are ‘Koralik’ (I lost the tag!). Both are delicious and sweet but the (possibly) ‘Koralik’ skins are slightly more tender and the flesh juicier.
Both plants are growing in foot-deep containers (one plant per pot).

I visited the Foodcycles farm the other day and was most intrigued by this beautiful scalloped squash called ‘Flying Saucer’.

I saw these dahlias while out on a bike ride and had to turn around and go back to take some photos. I’ve come around to dahlias for looking at, but I still don’t have any interest in sacrificing space to grow them. Thankfully there are lots of Portuguese families in my area that fill up their postage stamp lawns with them every summer.

It’s time again to spread the cosmos love around. They’re everywhere right now.
Yet again I am charmed. I blew three Polaroids on cosmos the other day. That’s more than 6 bucks spent admiring a flower that can self-seed into a thin sliver of cracked concrete.
Worth every penny, I’d say.
