This planter is interesting. All the flowers around the lower tier are different types of rudbeckia. The top of the planter has the tall pink plumes (see alt text for details). It was very eye catching!

Harvested my garlic, but the bulbs are all much smaller than usual. Because I moving & not having any beds ready, I had to grow them in pots. With no rain from mid-spring onwards, they only got tap water, and that didn't help, along with the hot days.

But there is enough from each of the 8 cultivars to save the best for next year, and they'll have a proper bed to grow in again finally. So hopefully bigger & more bulbs next season.

This will be enough garlic for the two of us for much of the next year, so still a good harvest in general.
