Photo 10: Potted Garden


there is nothing like walking outside and picking fresh basil to add to your meal! 
(Basil is wonderful on pizza and in sushi too!)
I love using basil so bought 2 plants this year and put them in a huge pot and they took off! To the left is chives, the right is spicy oregano, and in front is a tomato plant I just got. Is it too late to start tomatoes? 
(I hope not.) 
We have these horrible locust/grasshopper bugs that eat plants, they destroyed most of the stuff I planted the first year we lived here. But I have found what will survive them (rosemary, lavender, and irises) and then also that plants in pots are safe, so I have enjoyed my potted herbs!

Did you notice the sweet little face in the window?
