going to seed

Here is a group of herbs and vegetables going to seed. The pink radish flowers are over 2 meters tall, the bright yellow turnip flowers about 1½ meters high and the blue borage is the front row.

Broad beans and climbing peas will soon be ready to pick. Borage and calendula are self sown everywhere, they bring the bees to the yellow flowers of Uncle Dick’s turnips and to the pink flowers of the Fire Candle radishes.

The blueberry in the pot is covered with fruit. Capsicums, chillies and tomatoes in the greenhouse are ready to plant out.

herbs and perennials

Crowded in the garden and in pots around the water tank, curry plant, sages, lemon balm, oregano and thyme. Pretty with various flowers, colours and textures and close to the kitchen.
