Beginnings of a garden

Last weekend I weeded. Yesterday I planted seeds. Today I planted herbs. I'm excited about this year's garden, and I think daughter is too.

In the perennial department, the oregano, lavender, chives, mint, catmint and lemon thyme are off to a good start. For seeds, we planted some of mom's marigolds, violets, wildflowers, bush green beans, and salad greens. Today we added basil, dill, French sorrel (the salesman said it was the best for cooking) and cilantro.

All in my tiny flower bed and postage stamp backyard. Tomatoes and more herbs later this week...
