I went to the garden centre today....I spent $80 on 2 balcony boxes, 2 wire holders, potting mix, some assorted little flowering plants, trailing strawberries, and a few herbs......I don't know why I didn't do this years ago. Apartment living does have such limited space. Looking out my kitchen window, whilst standing at the sink, doesn't seem so bad anymore.....the simple things are often the best.

The simple things do make such a difference don't they Vicki? I am no green thumb and it's not through lack of trying but I do have a pot of herbs that have stood the test of time.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you lovely lady.

Herbs are next on the balcony box list Tammi.....although there is some Thyme tucked in with the petunias....another box next week, some sage, basil, chives, parsley, rosemary and fingers crossed some coriander!! Happy New Year to you to. Vx
ReplyDeleteI recently planted a vege garden for the first time. The basil has taken off and I have forgotten where the cherry tomatoes were planted. Perhaps some planter boxes are a better idea than the sandy soil ;p
