My front deck … and whoever left that “Big Creek” 8 pk carrier outside the temporary dumpster – thank you. I grabbed it and put it to use

  • A nice collection of planters & plants. Cheerful.
    Basil may bolt in the summer heat, provide shade, pick off the tips.
    New Zealand spinach would do well- it is a low maintenance, prolific grower and the young foliage is tasty & nutritious when steamed with some lemon juice & olive oil or butter.

    • The sweet marjoram is bolting, but I will collect the seeds and replant in fall. I have last years beets flowering. Also will be collecting the seeds. I bought 50 little seed envelopes just for this season. Plan on collecting a bunch. I only buy heirloom, non-GMO, so I can collect seeds and save some and give some.
