Dill — this is for the Monarch caterpillars.
Purple coneflower (Echinacea) — I also have coneflowers in white, red, and green.
Common sage — we also have tricolor sage, golden sage, and purple sage.
Chamomile
My favorite vegetable to grow — lettuce. Unfortunately, “THEY” won’t eat my lettuce. “THEY” prefer packaged store-bought lettuce — the kind all cut up and brown.
Asparagus — Ava and Helena cook this with beef stock and it’s delicious.
New strawberry plants.

Your gardens are beautiful and they are very inspiring!
I thought the Monarch caterpillar lived on milkweed?
Your gardens look great! Part of me wishes I still had a garden, but it was so much work with so little to show for it in the end. (We found out that a gravel road used to cut across our back yard right where we had our garden!)
Hello Laurie,
Your lettucce look very beauty and delicius. I wish be there and make me a salad with it.
Jessica,
You’re right! Dill attracts the swallowtails — which are similar in appearance to the monarchs. Laurie
I’m not picking any of that.
Hi mom. I like lettuce!
Mrs. Bluedorn, I think the Delphinium are beautiful, blue flowers are my favorite.
I think that I would like the lettuce, I just wouldn’t like the asparagus. 😛
Hi Laurie,
Sounds like you need Hans to pick a bunch of stuff from the garden and have a salad party!!! I’ll bring the dressing.
Love in Christ,
Christine
P.S. I can now access your blog & comments, no problem through both IE & Foxfire. I did have to clear out my cookies & history earlier today to be able to.
The columbine are very nice, I really like this flower.
