I was heart-broken about it! I think the cicada’s are getting to me as are the little gnat-like bugs hanging out at the bottom of my t...Sunny 26°C / 79°F

These sure have grown in the two weeks I’ve had them. They are getting pretty big! I’m wondering if I should take the smaller one out and give it it’s own space to grow….

This weekend I expanded the veggie garden by adding Super Bush Tomatoes and Hungarian Hot Peppers. They were on sale (buy one, get one free) at Natorp’s when I went there to pick up the rest of the herbs I wanted. Hopefully they’ll do well!

10 Jun 2008Room to grow! Lemon Balm Repotted and Container Herb gardenSunny 28°C / 82°F
This weekend I moved the lemon balm from it’s little container to a bigger one that I think is much better suited for it. Seems to have perked up even more now that it has space to spread its roots!
