A portion of today's harvest
It's going to be a very busy evening, so I thought I'd get my photos taken and uploaded early. And...I have a photo of a monarch! The second one I've seen in my garden, and the first I've been able to photograph. I hope that's a trend that continues.
Can you tell that the mallow and the hibiscus are related? To my mind, they're the same flower. I'm really not quite sure what differentiates them from one another. And both are related to the native globe mallow (bright orange) that's blooming out back in the desert area.
Ah, the harvest begins in earnest! This is just a small portion of what's on the bushes. I'll get at least two batches of salsa made today...maybe a third...and then will begin giving away tomatoes, peppers, cukes, jalapenos, etc. to the local food bank. It's a very good thing to be able to give away the bounty to someone who needs it more than I do. And there is always so much. God is a generous giver - now to pattern my own life after the life of God.
