Voila, good news the parsely has started to show some green!

This is great because I am having a basil explosion in addition to the tomatoes displaying blooms. I am extatic! This moning I repoted my orange tree (grown from seed). That tree has been in the family for over twenty five years and so far not a bloom. It has a lot of caracter and thats the only thing that ehlp it stay in the family. Planted some ginger too. The poppies are still giving a show.

Put in eggplants, tomatoes and some basil... we like to eat mediteranean diet   

more available but noy enough space. Between the birds, insects and mammelian scavengers to harvest my goodies planting in the right spot is a challenge. We'll see

Here it is May 5, 2008 the first poppy is open. Poppies are a favorite in the garden and a memory of long ago of poppies and bachelor buttons in wheat fields announcing the soon summer holidays.
