Flowers in the Veggie Garden

 

I have some difficult decisions to make of late. One of them is having to choose whether to pull out the flowering, gone-to-seed plants in my veggie beds or leave them a little longer to continue blooming and adding height to the centre of the front garden area.

Decisions, decisions....

I love the

My garden is going to look so naked and bare soon, when they have to be pulled out. This is always a challenge to me ~ just like pruning back roses and dead salvias stems. It's always worth it in the end but, my patience is always tried to the max as I wait for signs of new growth and life and that rambling effect to take shape.

If only life was as difficult as making these sorts of decisions...
