2.Sunday in the herb patch


As I continue to be inspired by growing my own produce, I thought I would share with you the latest growings of my mini urban garden patch.
I have a variety of herbs which are starting to sprout, with rocket plants, Ox Heart and Cherry tomato's yet to be potted.

I have been getting great inspiration and helpful tips from Stephanie Alexander's :Kitchen Garden Companion
a must have for anyone wanting to learn more about growing their own produce with some healthy, delicious recipes too.

Another form of inspiration I have found is in the edible garden concept developing in Sydney. The Edible garden on Foster Street, Surry Hills, Sydney is worth checking out Edible Outdoor Garden.

These are some snaps of what I have growing in my backyard mini garden:

My Lemon tree finally in bloom, second year in a row, just hoping I get some lemons before the bugs  get them first.



Rocket growing from seed in my recycled container planters


My first attempt at growing fennel

Red Cayenne Pepper plant, looking forward to getting some chilli's!

  1. Wow - your seedlings looks great! I've just bought Stephanie's book (on sale - yay!), and can't wait to get it. :)
