None of them are mine but by sharing and nurturing, they have flourished and grow greater every year.

NURTURE EACH OTHER, MY HUMAN GARDEN!

It was just too delicious to resist! Something (I'm thinking voles) swiped my Bronze Fennel overnight! 😂 These whithered stems are all that is left. The same happened to my dill a few weeks ago. I'm gonna have to battle the wildlife for my garden goodies, Mary!
