The Flower of the Vegetables 02
Some yellow flowers of the vegetables are blooming in my garden.
They are the flowers of the tomatos.
The macro lens can capture the small beauty.
This is the flower of the gombo (okura).
This is the flower of the bitter gourd (Goya) The Goya is growing rapidly and making a large green curtain along the wall at home.
It saves us from the storng sun during the summer.
I have the same tomato flowers on my plants on the balcony now! *^v^*
Did you plant edamame? I did. It has beautiful tiny white/violet flowers that remind me of the パンジー flowers. ^^
I also have okura, but it’s still very small so it doesn’t have flowers yet. I’m happy I could see your flowers and know what to expect! *^o^*
How nice that you also have tomato and okura!. I planted edamame last year. It goes well with beer.
Yes, the flower is cute. Thank you for your comment as always.
Ah, beautiful and then yummy!
Thank you so much!
You are very welcome. I love eating fresh vegetables!
We sort of tend to forget to look at the flowers of our vegetables, Cocomino, it is good you remind us. They may not be so big, but they are beautiful too. Of these I only know the tomato, but also the others were interesting. And nice.
Many thanks! I didn’t know the flowers of vegetables before I started to plant vegetables in my garden. It’s a great opportunity to know about food and nature things.
They are really beautiful.
野菜の花はシンプルで可愛いく、黄色が多いと思います。トマト、キュウリ、ゴーヤ、水菜、・・・。オクラの花、初めて見ました。ゴーヤカーテンも成長しましたね。この暑さ、少しでもやわらぐといいのですが。
そうですね。なぜだか、黄色が多いです。グリーンカーテンは、視覚的にも癒されます。
Wow your gourds are doing well!
Thank you. Glad to hear that.
Very exciting that you have the flowers
Thanks! It’s fun to see the flower and eat the vegetables.
They look so wonderful and healthy. It’s always an exciting time when the vegetable flowers appear!
Thanks! Yes, it’s exciting and relaxing time to spend time in the garden.
Nice veggie shots. I hadn’t heard of the last plant, but sure like the idea of a living sun screen.
Thank you. The green curtain is also good for the beautiful scenery.
I love the lavender/purple flowers of Aubergines. A couple of years ago a bird planted some seeds in my garden and as the plant grew I thought the flowers were unusual so I never removed the plants. A month or so later I noticed the flowers change to a purple ball, which then became elongated. Fascinated I watched for several weeks until I realised they were Aubergine plants! Thank you birds Nature is wonderful!
That’s a nice story. Thank you for sharing it. How wonderful nature is!
That’s reason that I continue to plant vegetables and flowers.
Here in the shitamachi people use asagao as green curtains, but it doesn’t grow as luxuriantly as goya. I think your solution is better! ^^
PS: I never knew tomatoes had such pretty flowers!
Thanks. I used to plant asagao when I was a child. The flowers are also cute.
I didn’t imagine that the flowers of the tomatoes are yellow.
Love the summer fruit and veggies. In Australia, Tomatoes are very popular to grow in the summer and make for great salads
That’s great. Tomatoes are also very popular in Japan and there are many recipes of the tomatoes.
I never knew tomatoes had flowers. It is a good learning experience being a part-time farmer.
Thank you. I’m farmer on weekends.
Soon you will have fresh vegetables! It’s wonderful to have your own garden.
Many thanks. I’ll do that. Can’t wait to eat them.
Great captures, Cocomino! Reminds me of our tomato garden back in the Philippines!
Thanks! Your garden must be nice.
This is my first time to see flowers of a tomato!
That’s good if you knew something new.
This is a really wonderful post. I always try to capture flowers of vegetables, but as i do not have macro lens so the final picture is not as good as I Imagine. You took these pictures so beautifully. Like this post a lot.
Thank you so much. I’m really glad to hear that.
The flowers are very cute.
Tomatoes are one of my favorites! Especially ripe home-grown ones (like the ones those wonderful flowers in your garden will be turning into soon)! I like to put them in many different dishes, but I also like to eat them plain / by themselves, too!
Yes, eating vegetables plain is very good. Recently vegetables sold in grocery stores don’t have deep taste but fresh vegetables in my garden have good taste without salt.
looking good! it’s so great to grow your own veggies – nice photos too!
Many thanks. Glad to hear that. I’ll share vegetables which I got.
What a bonus to the delicious vegetables, to have the flowers all around your garden before —
Thank you so much. They are really relaxing and make us comfortable.
WOW! This is so exciting… Thank you dear Cocomino, love, nia
Thanks a lot. I’m glad that you enjoyed them.
Lovely shots, thank you so much for sharing!
My pleasure. I’m happy to hear that.
