Jwolff's Patio garden

Created on Tuesday, 05 Aug 08

This is my patio garden. I grow mostly herbs and am getting into some cool weather veggies like spinach and lettuce. My patio doesn’t get much sun so it’s been challenging trying to get things to grow and flower, but I’ve had some success and it’s been fun and a good experience. Currently I have borage, feverfew, calendula, catnip, peppermint, lemonbalm, clary sage, lavender bergamot, coriander, lemon thyme, and dandelion growing here.
