Buy a couple of dozen gaudy plastic hibiscus, lily, or rose blooms and
fasten them to your corn stalks or over your potato plants!! That should
flummox the ignorant busybodies!

The only veggie-garden plants that ever got a "wow, that's beautiful!"
are okra and eggplant.
I also remember a tiny in-town front yard that was packed with paste
tomatoes and basil. (It was the only sunny spot they had.) Looked
strange, but very healthy and well-tended.
