Not stop the presses news, I know. I just planted 18 leaf lettuces in pots; some of the leaves fell off, so I used them for lunch! I had left-over coleslaw on top, they were excellent. The lettuce variety is "Red Sails". I also bought baby spinach plants, and will pot them up for my patio. The problem is keeping the felines away--4 of them have a thing for plants, espcially Loki. I can't put them out until later, so they're in the garage, covered with milk crates! (My cats have their litter boxes there.) I have to go to great lengths to keep them out of my herbs--I have to put plants on the mantlepiece, and make sure any climbable furniture is not nearby.
It's BEAUTFIUL weather here this weekend---hubby is finishing the shed, I got to use our new patio furniture, and I've started gardening. I'm a Fall person, but just can't wait for the warm weather, so I can start my first REAL vegetable garden.
