Here is a plant I heard called "kiss me over the garden gate." I need to look up the proper name for this one. Flowering tops and seeds are available for sale from this plant. It is a prolific plant and always reseeds and comes up on its own. There is a good crop of Sweet Annie out by the barn, too. In fact, I think this area would be a good place for a small garden next year. It is close to the water and in full sun.
To the left is a wreath I threw together to take to the flea market in hopes that it would inspire some shoppers to buy my perennial plants. What customers!!!!!! At least I am on a path now. I still love my stone planters above. Since I made them, these along with plants, would qualify for participation in the local farmer's markets. Like I said, I am on a path. Oh, and jewelry! Especially my goddess jewelry if it has a name perhaps linked with nature or flowers or moons. Just thinking out loud here.
NOTE: I am having a terrible time getting multiple pictures to end up where I want them so I can add text. I guess I will learn. That is one reason I do a blog - to keep up on some editing/layout skills.
After a little research, I discovered the red plant is not Kiss Me Over the Garden Gate. It is Hopi Red Dye Amaranthus. Info I got says it is edible. Not sure if I will be trying this.
