Here’s everything that’s blooming in my garden this September 15, 2009 – aside from the dahlias that are still blooming!
FREE-RANGE CHICKEN GARDENS. I have the pleasure of being included in Jessi Bloom's beautiful book (pages 27, 51 upper left, 112, 114-117). Check it out!
THE NEW LOW MAINTENANCE GARDEN. This book by Val Easton is one of my favorite design books.
WICKED PLANTS: Great read about poisonous plants by Amy Stewart.
THE VEGETABLE GARDENER'S BIBLE. My favorite vegetable garden reference book by Edward C. Smith.
GROW. COOK. EAT. by Willi Galloway is a beautiful vegetable garden cookbook. Great recipes and tips on eating ALL parts of the veggie - not just the mainstream parts.
Some very nice blossoms… I especially like the squash or pumpkin blossom: one of the larger traditional vegetable flowers. Do you harvest the sunflower seeds for snacks?

This is a nice way to do a Bloom Day post. I love sunflowers. So undervalued, imo.

Cityslipper – I wish we harvested the sunflowers. Maybe this year we'll get to them before they rot! I just love the way they look.
Chuck – I totally agree that sunflowers are undervalued!
