    All my herbs have sprouted.
    I'm going to plant my basil in the next few days, it's finally getting hot enough for them to do real well.
    I have some cinnamon basil. I'm really interested in what that will be like...

    So far I have cilantro, flat leaf parsley, fennel, dill, caraway, taragon, marjoram, baby mustard greens, thyme, sage, and red veined sorrel.

    Me too.
    That shouldn't stop you from getting a few planters though.

    Figs are awesome. Ours are huuuuuuge :D
    Gardens are sort of my dad's thing. He even grows lemons.


    But I really want sunflowers and wisteria.

    I'm planning on moving soon, so I'm not going to plant veggies until I know that I can reap the rewards. I would like a lemon tree too but they don't do well in Ontario without having some kind of greenhouse

    Grow tomatoes in pots and have a window box.


    I have tomatoes, roma and lemon boy, growing in pots and the ground. I have marigolds in window boxes, and lilac trees, morning glories, a rose bush, and a clematis. Not bad for a tiny back yard with no lawn.

    Yes, a few cherry trees.
    And 'we' grow a lot of other types of fruit and vegetable.

    I'm not too proud of that.

    carrots, onions, radishes all take up practically no space at all.
