My Herb Garden...

 I almost always have a small herb garden growing inside the house.
This past winter I bought this blue planter and replanted the herbs I had going.

- dill - scallions - basil -
I planted the ends of the scallions I purchased in the food store and they grew quite well. 
The rest I started with seeds.

Everything grew abundantly and this little garden fulfilled my fresh herb needs.
But as we got further into the summer, 
and since I have these herbs growing outside, I decided to plant succulents in this grouping.

I went to my favorite garden center, 
Barlows, 
and bought 2 succulents to put on either end of the grouping and kept the basil plant in the center.

- echeveria -

- aloe vera -

I find my little indoor garden brings me much joy!

I think I am going to pick up one more succulent, for the summer, and take the basil plant outside.

My other indoor plants, I only have a few...

Kalanchoe

Cyclamen
 I have had this plant forever and it has never been this big or healthy, doesn't it look great?
It has 2 purple flowers coming.

This is my favorite "splurge"...this watering can, that cost way too much money,
helps me to look forward to watering my plants!

My cactus is having babies, they just keep coming...this has never happened before.
It is so cool to look at and every garden needs to have a little yellow. yellow,
,

Orchid
This is my favorite, I adore the color and love how it shimmers and glistens in the sunlight.


Kalanchoe - Flaming Katy

I have been filling my time with keeping things around the house clean, 
painting, knitting, a little work in the gardens, 
seeing family and keeping cool in the pool!

I started this Honey Cowl a week or so ago.
 A Christmas present, I start early, knitting, for me, takes forever!
