The start of the summer harvest

February is the time on flowering and fruiting, as I start to reap the rewards of the springtime work. Check out these beautiful flowers and fruits of the harvest...

From tiny to substantial - Sungold cherry tomatoes and a luscious Black from Tula beefsteak:

Beautiful beans - the highly decorative and delicious candy-stripped Borlotti beans, and the classic scarlet runners drying nicely for seed in the warm air:

My nose is twitching with the scents of summer salads and winter stews to come, with all these lovely ingredients to play with. What a delight!
