Perfectly Imperfect

This bumble bee doesn't care if there are weeds in my garden.

This year's experiment is tomatoes interplanted with volunteer chamomile. I didn't have time to weed, plant, and mulch, so I plopped the plants in the "mess." So far, the normal critter digging and eating has been averted.

The radishes need thinning.

Is there a time lottery? I'd weed my lettuce and garlic bed. Even though it's messy, I'll take my perfectly imperfect garden any day.
