Here's the whole picture... parsley, daisies, rosemary, sweet basil, cilantro, sweet marjoram, chives, dill, strawberries, marigolds, thyme, and parsley and cilantro again. And someday soon, catnip! That rosemary plant has gotten so big, I think this weekend is time... I will be clipping some of it to start using it in the kitchen! Hooray!
The parsley's been doing really well since transplanting. This started out in one of the tiny little Chia plots. It's still in the sponge, just now it's got a lot more room to grow and real dirt to get comfy in.
The sweet basil seems to be a slow grower, but this week all those new little leaves emerged, so it's twice the size it was and it's starting to get a little taller. Nice.
I've finally identified what it was I planted here, cuz it's starting to look like itself... it's thyme! And it's been growing a lot this week, too.
And, the crazy trio of power continues to grow - marigold explosion on the top, cilantro on the left, another parsley on the right, with the cute little strawberry plant in the background.

How amazing! I am so impressed. All of those things can get a lot taller...and more spread out. You can even make cuttings and root them, so you'll have more.
My goal for container gardening is to have cucumbers on the porch. If you have a large enough pot, and give them a trellis, supposedly they will grow right up. Right now, cherry and plum tomatoes seem to be producing on the porch. Every square foot of sunshine counts!
I'm so impressed you've got tomatoes growing! I'm not even trying veggies or tomatoes cuz I get so little sun, I'd be too disappointed if they didn't take.
I'm trying to read up on all of my plants to see which are annuals vs. perennials, and how to harvest them when the time comes. I hope I can keep that rosemary plant going all winter. I can't bring it in cuz of Cleo, but it might survive our mild winter here.
