Casey, love that blue-eyed grass. It is one of those little things in nature that very few people notice. It grew in a few places around the yard at our Ohio home some 40 years ago. Haven't seen it since then.

I couldn't ID these extremely tiny and sparkly insect eggs, but KT members came to my rescue and told me they're from the Spined Soldier Bug, or Stink Bug. I was hoping for something more exotic and appealing. LOL

Comments (23)I found my first Violettos at a hardware store. For two years they had an amazing seed rack with different varieties of veggies not usually grown around here and some from Italy.

Aren't Rattlesnake beans also mottled purple? I'm curious now. I wonder if all this time I thought I had planted yellow wax beans that crossed with the purple, when I bought Rattlesnakes beans instead....See MoreI'll Show You Mine if You Show Me Yours Wed Aug 02

The birds sit on the edge of the nest a lot.
