Dotted dishes never
my favor Still I savor
flowers that flavor

I try to grow most #herbs here in my modern medieval monks’ #garden.
Chive in bloom, here mixed with some weedy grass.

Italian Globe Artichokes gone to flower and drying. I usually let the last few bloom but they rarely do’t go brown. This year there are purple Mohawks everywhere.

Pink trumpets blare in
morning gold air Banishing
bits of lived despair

My current backyard wonder. Crinum Lily is a fall bloom here. In pink, white, or striped they are keepers. No water needed here aside from our winter season and fog.
