September is definitely the month for this little area of my garden. My goal was late summer/early fall peak and I’m loving how these guys mesh together.

This corn blows my mind and if you saw my story yesterday, you know about the interesting little things that show up when you grow corn. Funny how that works! Now I know all about corn worms and corn aphids 🤢 and had I never plunked these seeds in the ground, I might never have learned that. This was my first year successfully growing corn, I can’t count last year because a wind storm mowed it over before it had time to mature. So this is my first go and I didn’t discover the stowaways until I was husking the ears yesterday. I’ll dry the kernels, pop it up and let you know how it goes once I get things sorted. #glassgemcorn #glassgem #colorfulcorn #colorfulcorn #rainbowcorn #corn #harvesttime #foodgardening #rainbow #prettycorn #playwithyourfood #vegetablegardening #vegetablegarden #potagergarden #potager #raisedbedgardening #raisedbedgarden #grownfromseed #directsow #foodart #foodphotography #edibleart #homegrown #vegetablephotography #gardenblogger #chicagogarden #hereshegrows #heatherblackmore

I love the colors in this little Perle Von Nurnberg echeveria. She’ll definitely be coming inside to hang out in a sunny window in a few weeks. She may even need a little trim to get her sitting right in her container. Her stem is arcing toward the sun. #succulents #echeveriaperlevonnurnberg #succulentlovers #thissuccs #toughplants #waterwiseplants #waterwisegardening #xeriscapegarden #echeveria #containergardeningideas #lowmaintenancegardening #easyplantstogrow #onthepatio #mosaictabletop #colorfulgarden #garden #hereshegrows #chicagogardening #heatherblackmore

This is why I’m always in a hat when I’m working in the garden. My hair has its own agenda, especially when the wind blows! #gardenhairdontcare #naturalcurlyhair #gotitfrommymom #hair #curlygirl @devacurl #gardener #tomatillos #curlscurlscurls #gonatural #longhair #thickhairdontcare #brunettecurls #hereshegrows #heatherblackmore
