Time to Grow...

I would like to think...or say that I have a green thumb.  My windowsill consists of about 10-15 different plants!  Bamboo...Mint...Jade...Fukien Tea Tree...Lavender...Aloe...Forget Me Nots...Creeping Charlie....so many!  But I have wanted to try and grow my own vegetables...but don't have the room...so I came up with an idea.  I went to the local farmer's market and picked up a tomato plant and a zucchini plant for $2!  And where did I plant them?  In a little red wagon I found!  I hope that it works and is big enough!  I am excited to see if the plants produce any veggies!  Here are some pictures of my plants....
My Mint Plant!  I love planting in cute teacups!

Fukien Tea Bonsai Tree

Jade...Brandon's Mom planted it for our 1 year anniversary!  It is already sprouting!

Some weird plant my sister got me! Pretty colors!

My other Fukien Tea Tree...it arrived dead and I brought it back to life!

My tomato and zucchini plant!  In the little red wagon!

  4. THAT IS SO CUTE!!! The little red wagon is a phenomenal idea, not only practically but it is darling. I'm so impressed. I want a green thumb desperately but so far I haven't discovered it . . .

    Just finished your lists & sealed the envelope--mailing tomorrow and I had so much fun doing it. Thank you for forgiving my lateness!
