We have some pepper mint and oregano and some other herbs starting to grow. We didn't plant them this year, they just kinda recovered from last year and started showing up a few days ago.
This fairy ... first i thought she was trying to pull the plant out of the soil. But then i realized, she just tries to make it grow faster :)
HA! Oh, that's great! Love her stance. Though someone please tell her that's not how you make plants grow faster. :)
ReplyDeleteOooh, you have an herb garden. I'm so jealous!
ah! its all right.. let her do it :)
ReplyDeletei need some mint you know :)
oh, by the way! my basil i started from a leaf i bought in a fresh bunch in a store :). i planted it in a pot and keep it inside the house. it is still too small now, but i would love to always have fresh basil. it gets too pricy to buy and we eat a lot of basil in all kinds of pasta and fresh salads
ReplyDeleteWhat? You can start basil from a leaf??? Do you put rooting hormone on the stem, or just stick the leaf in the dirt???? Do tell, do tell!
ReplyDeletewell, a leaf with a stem. i put them in a glass of water, and within a week or two it rooted all over the glass, and then i planted it in a pot.
ReplyDeletei told my friend in Lithuania, and she did the same for rosemary
