I planted Genovese basil seeds from Home Depot in a pot. they are small, but growing. The leaves taste like the basil I want. Everything is growing slowly now even the coleus, perhaps the heat slows things down?
I lived "up north" until recently. Gardening "down here" is a whole other world! I am currently staying with a friend in Boca Raton, looking for my own place. It is so expensive and unfriendly here, I am widening my search to SC. I would be happier in a house in a friendly neighborhood than a condo complex. Former neighbors who moved to the Summerville, SC area outside Charleston are very happy. I planned to find my own place this summer and rescue my furniture and belongings from storage before winter. Life is not proceeding according to plan.....
I miss having a garden. I currently have a couple pots, some air ferns and a growing collection of tropical seeds gleaned in my travels...
