July 12th Harvest : Nasturtium, Dill Flower and Hakurei Turnips
July 12th Harvest : Nasturtium, Dill Flower and Hakurei Turnips
Have you gathered such a diverse harvest that you needed multiple baskets to carry it all? This artwork expresses that joyful abundance, showing the thrilling variety that comes from a well-planned summer garden. This artwork features dark brown woven baskets with pristine creamy fleshed Hakurei turnips, their smooth round globes still crowned with fresh green leaves, alongside vibrant orange and red nasturtium flowers with their lily pad shaped leaves. Delicate white coriander blossoms and bright yellow dill flowers fill a glass pitches beside the basket. You can almost smell the peppery scent of the nasturtiums and feel the smooth, cool skin of the turnips in your hands. The rough woven texture of the baskets contrasts beautifully with the soft flower petals and glossy turnip leaves. Look closely and you will see that cheerful yellow apron printed with tiny bees, reminding you of the role of pollinators in creating garden abundance. This is the exuberant joy that comes from harvesting vegetables and edible flowers all at once.
Envision this abundant artwork in your kitchen or dining room, where it celebrates the diversity that makes gardening endlessly rewarding. When your guests see it, they'll ask about growing herbs, edible flowers, or share their excitement about discovering fast-growing varieties like Hakurei turnips. It sparks conversations about using flowers in salads and how growing both food and beauty together creates a richer garden experience. This artwork celebrates the joyful abundance you experience when your garden gives you variety and beauty all in one harvest.
“The first year I grew Hakurei turnips I was so impressed with their sharp peppery flavor and quick growth from seeds planted in March! I wanted to feature them in an artwork, but they are not very colorful, so it was a challenge to create a compelling image. I walked around the garden to discover what else might be ready to harvest and discovered a variety of herbs and edible flowers that were ready. I decided that yellow and cream colors contrasted against deep brown would create a warm and harmonious composition.”
