Over the past few days, I have been acquiring additional plants for the garden:
 |
| Strawberry |
A strawberry plant is a bit like 'Hen and Chicken'. The mother plant grows long tendrils which develop new strawberry plants. The above is one mother plant with lots of babies. I figure I am going to have to leave it like this until the babies root. Then I will move the mother plant to a better looking container and hopefully more tendrils with more new plants will develop.
 |
| Chocolate mint |
Now this is an interesting mint. It smells just like peppermint crisp! It is waiting in a pot outside my back door in a place which is part shade and part sun. Mints need to be potted as in the right environment they grow like weeds, and can become a nuisance.

| Perennial basil and comfrey |
Behind the perennial basil is some lemon grass. These are waiting to be planted this weekend.
