Garlic Chive plants are sending up a lot of white flowers.   These flowers are magnets for bees and other pollinators.

Variegated Tomato Plant

Tomato plants all look pretty much the same until they have fruit.   Except I am growing one variety of tomato that has attractive variegation in the leaves.  The tomatoes taste good, too.

Pinto Beans

I have a nice stand of Pinto Beans growing in the garden. These dry beans are reliable producers in most years.

Scorzonera Flowers and More

Scorzonera has yellow flowers for ornamental appeal. This plant is used as a vegetable, edible leaves and mild roots that can be eaten, too.

Spring Root Crops

Usually fall is the time to dig root crops in the garden, but parsnips can be dug in spring. The winter helps sweeten up this crop.
