For the past two days I've had flowers pop open overnight. The more dramatic of my new flowers are my poppies:

I love how unique and textured this flower is. I actually didn't intend to grow these this year. i planted some prior to creating my front veggie and flower garden. I thought I had cleared them out, but apparently some of them still managed to re-seed.

The other exciting discovery for this week are a couple of red cherries!

These are actually tart cherries so they are not just-picked-off-the-tree yummy. And they are unfortunately too small to bake with, but I'm still excited that my tree even produced cherries for it only being the second year we've had it.

Finally I spent a good portion of my morning collecting and arranging flowers for the restaurant. I think I liked the previous batch better. Having more pink and purple accent flowers really made the yellow pop. Even though I have more yarrow, I decided against adding them because they seem to fade quickly.
