I took those photos on my garden today.
My garden is full of life.
I often meet a frog in the middle of my
vegetable garden. I have there a beautiful caterpillar** and many
ladybirds.
What a luxury it is to pick up my own lettuce. First three
zucchinis will grow by Sunday. Also 15
other sorts of vegetables grow and many beautiful flowers.
**Does anybody know this caterpillar?
You have the best garden! Glad you are finally able to start eating all of your hard work! :)
ReplyDeleteThat caterpillar is gorgeous! I love the last photo of a lettuce, with such beautiful spirals.
ReplyDeleteYou're making me jealous though - I love summer vegetables, but yesterday made a big pot of winter soup from winter root vegetables. Not quite the same!
The vegetables and flowers look beautiful.....and the colouring on the frog is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI had a quick search for the caterpillar – it might be this one: common yellow old world swallowtail caterpillar/butterfly
Happy Eating!
What a beautiful garden! The caterpillar will become a dovetail butterfly (papilio machaon). It is actually my favorite caterpillar - in my language we call it "carrot caterpillar" (Rüebliraupe) because it likes to eat the greens of carrots :-).
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing quite so good as vegetables picked fresh from your own garden. :) My dad has a pretty big garden, and we will be going to visit soon, hopefully just as the yellow wax beans, carrots and potatos are ready. Yum!!
