Saving Marigold Seed

 The wonderful French Marigolds are smiling upon my garden

They were planted end of last Summer
To the left
broccoli rabb, lettuce, scallions, spinach, camomile's and what not

 There are a few carrots, cauliflower, celery and radish growing. A free tomato gave gift via the compost It is so thriving in it's given home. Be nice of the whole of the garden planted itself on it's own.

 Happy tomato loves the reflection of the shed wall.

These are the lettuce pots closer to the house for ease of harvest come that day.

 after some time of sitting there opening up each bud it will be set aside to dry

I thought a lot about the seed pods on the flower plants they don't look like much. They take all that energy from the plant. They get trimmed off so the plant can produce more flowers. With out the seed pulling, draining the plant no seeds would come about. God...just splitting the buds to get the seed out to dry.
Gets a real good harvest in due season. Cant plant it till the time is right. Sorta like the lives of humans as well

:)

I love my time in the gardens

Each dog got a walk around the block today as well. Better run Dash to the allergist for shots.
