@Larisa , love those night time photos taken with flash (I think). Nice.
Except for the smaller tomatoes, which were planted from seed last year (and are much more prolific this year), everything was grown from seed. For me, the naturtium (nasturtii?) are a big deal because I don't have much luck growing flowers from seed.

Lanceleaf Tickseed & Spiderwort. These are very important plants in my garden because they're the only ones blooming during the transition of Spring wildflowers to Summer wildflowers. My Spring-blooming natives wrapped up last week, and my Summer-blooming natives wont start for another week or two. Another plant that helps the transition is Penstemon digitalis, which should start blooming today or tomorrow.
Another plant that just started blooming, Gaillardia X grandiflora 'Goblin' is a hybrid of two native Gaillardia species, G. aristata and G. pulchella. I've considered replacing it with one of those two native species, but frankly, it's established well and is a huge pollinator attractor, so I've kept it. Actually, I think I did buy G. aristata seeds at one point, so I have that as well, but I couldn't tell you which is which because they look identical. I have a 4' by 4' gaillardia garden surrounded by my driveway and patio where it fills in nicely every year. I've also got some in my native garden and some by my pond.

Just wow! I had considered putting some cactus out around the waterfall, tucked into rock and such during the summer and kinda discarded the idea but now... I am definitely thinking about it again they are so pretty.
