Spring Planting


In addition to last year's surviving basil and nasturtium, and a very leggy geranium from 2004ish, I will soon have:
  • more basil
  • carrots
  • tomatoes
  • spinach
  • garlic
  • strawberries
  • marigolds
  • candytufts
  • lavender
I am already beginning to have radishes:


The nice thing about living in a city apartment with no outdoor space is that I can start my seeds as soon as they are available at the hardware store, without having to worry about the appropriate week to transplant them outdoors.
