confederate jasmine and provence lavender grow in my garden

While I should have been reading chapter 10 of Erika Hoff’s language development textbook, instead I was growing an apartment garden.

Apparently I did not learn my lesson about being too hasty. I planted the confederate jasmine in a window box that I fear may be too small. I also planted the lavender in a pot that I fear may be too small. I’m going to give them both a chance in their current homes, but I promise that if they begin to look ill–or even sad– I will move them to a more spacious location.

thai basil, soon-to-be garlic and mint grow in my window herb garden

On the bright side: my herb garden is perfect. I planted some mint, which looks a bit droopy right now. The move from tiny little pot to window box garden was rough on the little guy. But he did sprout a new sprig last night, so he must be happy. The Thai basil was significantly more resilient to the move and is standing tall and smelling wonderful.

As a little experiment, I planted some garlic cloves. Now we wait to see if I have a green thumb, or if this is going to be more than I bargained for!

P.S. Please send sunshine.
