Window tomatoes


The window garden is doing fine, 
The lettuce surprised me, it grew so abundant. Unfortunately the greenfly was also very happy with this abundance. They came with many from the roses outside and took over, so no lettuce for us.  
The tomatoes are also ripening. 
The mini paprika has about 7 fruits. 
I had a little cucumber and an aubergine as well, but they grew so fast, I decided to give them a home with a little more room and now they are very happy on a guest balcony.

Know what you wish for.

Now I'm a small city mama. Our house has no garden. I miss gardening so much, even though I'm not so good at tending plants. The plants that live inside are all survivors.
Last post I showed my humble new window garden. This week I received as a gift, a garden of totally different proportions.




I've never tried to grow lettuce in my window, but there is a first time for everything. My best hopes are for the cherry tomatos.

I love the surprise! I would not have had the courage to try to grow all these different plants in my window. And the fresh thought of another person lifts me over my boundaries and lets me try this new thing. I love the way how the intermingling of someone else’s life and way of living enriches your own.

Life is wonderful!

Window Garden

Time for a little project. 
Now I do not have a green thumb, but spring gets the better of me every time this time in the year, so I decided to give it another go and start a window garden.

Tadaaaaah!
