Dancing Garlic

It’s a first for the vegetable garden. Garlic (Allium sativum). Planted several months ago. It’s been a learning experience to see it coming up, green leaves reaching for the sky. And now flower buds atop their stems, bending in unison, Rockettes style. Who would have thought that garlic dances in the garden?!

    1. Hahaha! Bev, the plants in the vegetable garden feel the need to dance to please the fairies, don’t you think!?
      Oh happy day, when you and Lynn got married. What a marvelous surprise!
