Dill & Basil!

A beautiful sunny morning and some presents from the herb propagator. 3 Dill and 5 Basil seedlings have come up! Looks like we're getting our first mint too... and Jason's very excited because 3 more of the sunflowers have appeared. Excellent start to the day! Happy Tuesday everyone!

  2. Happy Tuesday Mews Gardeners!
    Mint can be a menace when planted in beds - I suggest you keep it contained, or plant within the pot in your border.
    Bagsy me a chilli plant if you get a bumper crop!

  3. About to search for some tall growing shrubs for the end of my garden. Maybe a Red Robin and something with a lime green foliage - any ideas fellow gardeners?

    basil and Dill have been busy I see!

  4. I've got a big pot waiting for the mint! Mojitos on the way... ;D
    Of course you can have a chilli plant - fingers crossed!

    I know nothing about shrubs - I'm deep in books about vegetables and still not sure I know much about them either!

  5. Paula.... What about some Jasmine? http://www.guardiangardencentre.co.uk/plant-0005051-ke-1/trachelospermum-jasminoides/

    I've been adding things to my 'wish list', including a bay leaf tree, blueberries and a (dwarf) cherry tree - which looks great: http://www.guardiangardencentre.co.uk/plant-0003368-cc-1/cherry-pigmy-kordia/
