Sometimes, especially at the end of working several hours in the garden, I just sit and look at what's growing.

It might be silly, but I enjoy just looking at my vegetables.

At this time my vegetables are still relatively small, because I got my garden in late. I had several broccoli, cauliflower and brussels sprouts from early this spring that were still growing--they had gone in late, too!

But, I can at least admire my flowers. There are some that are pretty and some that smell good, I like them all.

They grow mostly on their own, without much help from me (except for a little fertilizer), because my focus is on the veggies. These pictures are a few of the flowers that are blooming in my backyard now.
