Baby Kitteh Helps Plant The Garden

Well, not really, lol. 

Mike and I went out to the garden centre today to get a patio tomato plant and four herbs for a little planter we have. When we got there, they had a big buy one get one free sale one veggies and herbs so we ended up getting 12 plants and a window planter to put some of them in, lol. 

One corner of the balcony. From left to right; fennel, bush beans, okra, swiss chard, big tomatoes, yellow peppers, cherry tomatoes and hot cayenne peppers. After I planted the okra I looked it up and it's probably going to end up going to my parents place. Apparently they get to be about 2 metres tall, lol. The little tomatoes and little peppers will be going into bigger planters, we thought we had some at home but apparently not. 



Here's the little herb planter. The tallest one in the back is thai basil, next to it is dill, below that is sweet basil and beside that (to the left) are chives. The plant on the plate is cat grass that I had killed and Mike resurrected, lol. 



And a few pics of the baby kitteh checking things out. Neither of the cats are allowed out there unless we're with them.





"Looks good!"

Sooo cute. Love all the herbs!

Love herbs, cute cat too.

Fennell is really good when boiled in a tea, it has a licorice like flavor-- and is a natural expectorant to loosen phlegm & mucus in your chest
 

Thanks!

Good to know about the fennel, thanks!

The plants are all doing really, really well. The big tomato is already at the first wire in the cage, it's growing so fast. It has a flower on it and a few buds. The peppers have a few buds too!

Yes, okra gets big, but has a pretty flower.

In "olden days", when hats were the rule and she was a poor farm girl, Mom would take a length of netting, gather it, and attach a flower.
One time the only thing in bloom was the okra. She used a blossom and got a lot of compliments! :bigthumb:
