The nursery has all it's plants, flowers, trees, planters, etc... on
sale for half price. They are getting ready to change seasons and will
be preparing to become a pumpkin patch.
Last week I bought two 4" pots, one of parsley and one mint. I also
bought two terra cotta pots and drain dishes for a whopping total of
$7.00. I wasn't sure how long the sale would last so Sunday I stopped
by and bought more herbs. I bought rosemary, sage, Thai basil,
cilantro, thyme and lemon thyme and some pots to plant them in.

I think I'll put shelves up the sides of the cabinets that are on each
side of the window and put them there. I'm still vacillating as to
what to do, so for right now my window ledge is pretty full. At least
watering them is easy.
The two plants on either side of the faucet is the lemongrass I bought
at the grocery store and planted.

Grrrrrrrrr.... Yesterday Lin and I took a drive to a nursery way out in the
Vacaville countryside to find herbs for our garden. Turned out that Monday
is the *only* day of the week that the place is closed!

Well, it was a pretty drive anyway.

Pretty soon you'll have to use a machete to cut through the jungle to get
to the window!!

I haven't started it up since we moved. I have so much more room
inside now for potted plants I thought I'd enjoy that for a while.
I have comtemplated setting it up in my office at work though.

I haven't set it back up since we moved. I'm contemplating setting it
up in my office at work.
I have more room for potted plants in the cottage so I'm enjoying
having them, for now anyway.

I'll bet it_is_beautiful.
Ravishing, I'd look ravishing in persimmon. :-)
