The big pot

This pot contains coriander, sage, golden feverfew and an alpine strawberry. They were all bought as little herbs and i guess because they got the biggest pot , they have grown the most.

It takes an entire watering can every day in this dry weather and the coriander keeps falling over but I am still pleased with it

Gift voucher

I finally got to the garden centre to use my vouchers. I had £25 to spend so i bought 10 assorted little herb plants and 12 assorted tomato, courgette and pepper plants. I also spent £12 on two more bags of compost which puts my budget well over but hey who cares when you having fun.

In the big pot, i decided to put some herbs. I think that in the future I may only grow herbs as they seem to be foolproof. Buy a plant, plant a plant and enjoy the plant. So easy. None of the worry that i get when i look at my pot of carrots that for all i know may just be a pot of slushy compost. I thought i saw some green in the carrot pot but looking closely it looks like a speck of the lettuce although how that happened, god only knows.

Anyway in the big pot is coriander, golden feverfew, an alpine strawberry and a sage. There may also a few nasturtium seeds as i have been adding them here and there. The woman in the garden centre said they were fool proof. We shall see!!!!!!!!!!!
