   Don’t have one right now. (boo hoo) I live in an apartment. But the balcony is as full as I can get it with pots. A bamboo I dug up on the side of a road, a miniature banana tree, poinsetia left over from Christmas, I even grow herbs and cherry tomatos and have a grape vine started. Don’t know how I’m gonna handle that when it gets big!

   I already planted everything except 2 sweet breath of heaven that are waiting for hubby to dig the holes. I planted thyme, basil, oregano, tomato, peppers, spearmint, parsley, fennel in the food garden. In the window boxes I planted, geraniums, petunia, vinca, and some hens and ******. In the hanging baskets I planted, petunia, geranium, spider plant, sedum, ivy and impatients. In the beds, I planted freesia, columbine, upright fushia, hydrangea, boston fern, rose of sharon, oleander, dwarf peter pans, jasmine, begonia, peony, aloe and a jade plant. I probably won’t stop there, though, everytime I go to the home improvement store I come home with at least 5-10 more plants.
