for your visual stimulation

Here are some flowers on steroids from the Public Gardens!


Normally, we're good with plants, and managed to grow a jungle in our south-facing apartment in Calgary. But, the little guys below aren't such a successful story. We got them at the farmers market a couple of weeks ago. The basil and rosemary were big enough to make it, but I think we need some practice with gardening in damp weather and only morning light. (I think I drowned the little ones. Oops.) Carla sent us a seed kit with Thai herbs and chilis, and they're doing okay - kind of stunted, but at least making progress. I can't wait for the new condo and it's southern exposure!
