This is the east end of my mixed border garden.&nbsp;
The photo was taken late afternoon just before sunset.&nbsp;
&nbsp;I successfully mix annual flowers, shrubs, &nbsp;perennials and vegetables, (Eggplant and tomatoes are in the foreground).&nbsp;
The large sweeps of color from the annuals, provide a visual anchor to the organized chaos of mixing so many plant types. &nbsp;I tend to appreciate more the ornamental value of vegetables, when I count on them for visual impact in my mixed border. &nbsp;What is nice is that the ornamental strengths that a vegetable displays there, &nbsp;follows through to good food presentation on the plate.
