Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day – July 2010

I write lots of garden blog posts in my head, but since this is the first one making it to the blog, I don't feel I can claim the title of "garden blogger" yet. Still, I have to start somewhere - and I've been wanting to start Bloom Day posts for quite a while, after seeing the beautiful Hayefield bloom day posts every month for over a year now.

July is a good month to start - lots of beautiful things flowering in the yard! The most stunning are the 'Blackout' Asiatic lily flowers.



Then there are the volunteers...













And even a few ornamental flowers that we planted...

















But my favorites are the food plants - beautiful and delicious in the same plant! :)

'Blondkopfchen' cherry tomatoes


'Spookie' pumpkin


'Alaska Mix' nasturtium


'Ambrosia' corn


'Neckargold' pole bean


'Blue Marbut' pole bean


'Sugar Snap' pea


Oregano


Cinnamon basil


'Rattlesnake' pole bean


'Insuk's Wang Kong' runner bean
