Something's Growing On

Besides that!

For a long time, I've been unable to grow plants. Not just unable...I've killed cacti. Sue has plants I don't even sit that close to. I thought that my body emitted some kind of toxin that destroys plants on the molecular level.

I was wrong.


I've actually managed to grow some things. The following pictures are actually a week or two old, so most of the plants are even bigger. I even used some of the basil in the bruschetta I made for dinner tonight.

This is the cat nip. Not really hard to grow, but it's going crazy! Makes kitties happy.



Happy kitties help out with the planting.


I think this is the oregano. It smells like (wait for it!) oregano. That's pretty cool.


Ad here's George, the mint plant that started it all. He's getting too big for his coffee cup.


I have some lavender that's doing really well. The basil is all over the place. There's rosemary that's finally doing something. The parsley is getting somewhere finally. I'm pretty impressed. I actually need a couple more cool cups to put a few more odds and ends into.

And Sue's cactus-y thing is still alive!
