I planted some seeds of heirloom tomatoes about 7 weeks ago and every single one has grown.I have about 40 (O dear,I only need about 6-8)
Today I worked with my herbs,putting them into fresh mix.I cannot do without chives and parsley,but I also have oreganum and sage and borage,the latter has started flowering.I have some in big pots by the back door and some in front of the vegetable garden.
Borage is related to the foxglove and I was told that NZ grew foxgloves during the war and shipped it to the Allies for medicinal use.
