Here it comes lol. It only happens once a year so it’s got to be a big deal.

I don’t remember bc I got sick but I think I’d remember if it flowered

It does well in part shade and even cool weather

basil sprouted. Ginger is growing but small it’s still indoors. Today I went to a new garden center well new to me.

I got:

Oregano
different basil
Italian parsley
A small burgundy ficus
And a HUGE draecena. Variegated. It’s healing something in me. I’m so tired but I’m looking forward to cleaning the leaves

The same amaryllis just bloomed again. Twice in one year. Must be something in the water .

Today I picked up Juliet tomatoes (Roma and cherry cross)

Japanese cucumbers (10 for $5!)

And more soil
Have a lot of repotting to do since most will be deck gardening

And friend gave me some tomato and sunflower seedlings!

I am vexed.

2mo ago I was not up to getting my seedlings started (indoors, with grow light, & fan to flatten them / bulk up their stalks…. Looooove watching the puny flattened seedlings start being able to lean against the fan; making thick fat stalks, that are nutrient 6 lane highways instead of pedestrian avenues).

This month I’m not up to planting. (Above non-existent seedlings, late start varieties, or bought-cheaters).

It’s a durn good thing my garden no longer feeds us. Because it soooooo wouldn’t feed us. As it ain’t gonna happen this year. I’m rarely even up for growing sprouts in a jar, this year. Much less food & medical gardens. >.<

My wife’s Mother’s Day flowers, I always get them,they last so long and never remember the name, and my irises with the sun behind them I always cut some and bring them in. They go by quickly but the buds will keep opening so I have to pick at them .
