Have you ever looked at a borage flower that closely? No, me neither! Isn’t it pretty fascinating how complex these seemingly simple cobalt blue flower are created by Mother Nature, which only the macro lens reveals? The blooms are edible and I think they would look so pretty sprinkled over a salad. I have never eaten any so far, but I organically grew a borage plant from seeds which went bonkers and is now loaded with blooms. I think I will try them for Easter as a special treat! #borage #borageflowers #borageflower #edible #edibleflowers #inmygarden #inmygardentoday #macro #macrophotography #garden #gardens #organicgardendreams #gardening #cobaltblue #organic #organicallygrown #salad #saladgarnish #specialtreat (at San Diego, California)

I found two more favs bean plants in a bed this morning. (I really did place those seeds kind of randomly!). This brings total counts so far to 4 sprouted seeds. Fava beans are fabulous, not only for the beans themselves, which are delicious, but for their dramatic back and white blossoms which can add some fun flare to the salad bowl during the holidays. #favabeans #saladgarnish #igrowfood #growyourownfood #thedirtonorganicgardening #urbanorganicgardening #growtherevolution #therevolutionisgrowing (at Pasadena, California)
