Tried so hard yesterday at a local garden to get a good photo of a monarch butterfly on some Gregg’s blue mist flowers but this is the best I got. Always a treat to see them out and about. #naturephotography #monarch #butterflies #flowers #bloomscroll #nature #gardensky #gardening

Basil has been cultivated by humans for at least 5,000 years as far as archaeobotany can determine. Agostino Reghitto Italian basil is a family heirloom that’s only a century old by comparison, but the flavor is timeless 🌱💚 #gardensky #funfact #foodie #herbgarden

Little fall harvest this morning of peppers, tomatillos, and some green beans that came back all on their own this fall. #gardening #zone8 #gardensky #photography
