I am SO proud of myself. Each year I buy plants, and I loose some of them because I don’t get them planted within a reasonable period. This year, as in past years, I fell prey to that “I HAVE to have one (or three) of those” compulsion, and I filled up what passes for a trunk in our SUV.
\nI unloaded the plants, and some of them went directly into containers for my mother, and others were left in the garage, temporarily, or so I thought. They were there at least a week before I moved them outside so they wouldn’t die of lack of sunshine.<\/p>\n

In two hours I managed to plant about 25 plants: three types of basil, two types of parsley, two types of rosemary, tricolor sage, two types of miniature tomatoes, purple verbena, impatiens and petunias!
