May 20 Garden Idea

I saw this garden idea at a public garden I visited today. A gardener had planted daisies in the center of red leaf lettuce plants. The effect was quite striking. This is an idea I would like to try next year in my own garden.

This shot is for the black and white fortnight challenge. The first fortnight challenge, which runs from May 19-June 1, is garden. I had already posted a color photo yesterday, so I am joining the BW challenge a day late.
Lovely shot Daisy! I love daisies... wish my name was Daisy!!

It's probably good for companion planting as they call it!

Great idea!

Lovely shot. You have tagged it fine, if you'd like to share it in the thread go to the three dots by your fav star. In there you will see a code. Copy that code then go to the thread and paste it there. Will look like a long list of gobbled up rubbish but when you post it will like your photo. Don't have to post there though, so no pressure.

Very unusual, you have captured it well, quite like it in black and white.

Striking. Great to pick up ideas and use the camera to record them. Lovely BW photo.

@lynnz Thanks! I love daisies too. P.S. Daisy is only my 365 name.

@maggiemae At this garden, the gardeners practice a lot of edicble gardening. I think this might be part of that concept (using vegetables as part of the flower garden).

@deu49097 I really like this idea.

@newbank Thanks! I will try to post to the discussion thread if I have the time. My schedule is insane this week.

@daisymiller That's cool that Daisy is your 365 name! We can be whoever we want to be here!

@oopsadaisy Thank you. BW is something I struggle with.

@lleo Thanks! I use my camera to take pictures of gardening ideas I like. It really helps me if I have a visual image for later reference. The garden I went to is a great source of gardening ideas.
