This is my favorite plant this week in the yard. Ornamental Amaranth, otherwise known as "Love Lies Bleeding" or (Rebecca's preference) "Kiss Me Over the Fence". This one is the lone survivor of what I started inside this spring, I sewed outside more after frost and they're only a couple inches tall.
The Blackberry Lily (not really a lily, Iris family I believe) is pretty great too. I look forward to them filling out and taking up a bigger space in the front yard...
I harvested all my garlic...
Why would I only plant 13 bulbs!?! This was a wimpy harvest, I should know better. Next year I need to order some garlic before it sells out....
So far we have a bounty of peppers though!These are 'California Wonders' and 'purple JalapeƱos'

The Scarlet Runners are really beautiful. I tried to plant enough beans this year to dry, time will tell.

Of course, the penis squash is thriving, taking up more than it's fair share of space.
