I truly can see now why gardening is so educational. You see the nature of plants for food spring forth, bit by bit. Glorious!!

Vegetable Flowers
For those master gardeners, please excuse this novice. I'm just in awe of my little garden and everyday is a revelation. This morning when I had my garden meditation - yes, that's what I call it - it dawned on me that vegetables have flowers! My eggplant's flower has yellow petals with a purple center. Squash has gorgeous blossoms that open into huge yellow flowers. I should have picked those blossoms and cooked them; maybe next time. Yellow flowers sprout along my trailing cucumber vine. Even my banana and Thai hot peppers and basil have petite white flowers.
