country garden

well.....after seeing Jennifer's lovely crocosmia picture I went to try and capture my own more successfully than first time!!
But look what I found growing in the flower bed!
I think there is wheat, barley and oats here...........not a farmer though so happy to be corrected!
If you look closely at reflections you may see Allan taking the photo while I hold the 'bunch of flowers'!!!!
haha, I see you both .... kinda creepy actually ... in a nice friendly ghost sort of way. very pretty scene, ghosts and all.

these grasses are lovely.
One of tehm is now in my garden courtesy of the birds chucking seed around from their feeder , Like you I like its nodding heads.

You've got your very own harvest festival here!

Yes I can see you !! I'm afraid I don't know what this is either Sallie I would think barley for sure but not 100%. Love how you have caught the fronds so well !

I like this! Nice!

@june Ah thanks June...........the spot they were growing in is pretty close to where Allan hangs the bird feeders! That is probably the source!
@happypat The ones with thin 'strands' are barley, the chunky ones are wheat and the other 'spaced out' ones (!!) are oats. Had a knowledgable friend in this evening so I was showing them to her.
@mrssmith @jmj @olivetreeann @sunnygreenwood
Thanks all - I like the idea of harvest festival!
Now if I were to dry them I wonder how I'd do it!

I've had similar plants in my garden. They come from the seed dropped from the bird feeder. Nicely done.
