A Time to Plant & Transplant

Herb Garden

        So, here are the humble beginnings of my herb garden this year. I purchased this 15 gallon galvanized tub for just $14 at a Hudson's Salvage Center a few weeks ago. Now on to the plants! I purchased the Oregano (left), Cilantro or Coriander (top), and Sweet Basil (right). I also transplanted a cutting of Lemon Thyme (front) from a cutting off of my mother-in-law's plant. I also planted some Parsley seeds in the top left corner, some more Oregano in the middle, and some Rosemary in the top right corner.

                       Lucky Bamboo

        I also transplanted my poor, little Bamboo plants today into a pot. Last fall I accidentally let them get too dry and one of them died. I am down to only two plants, but after letting them sit in a bowl of water all winter I hope they continue to improve.
