We have a great "garden" now. Sebastien found two window boxes in our alley that are perfect for the window sills outside the living room and bedroom of our apartment. The day he found them, I rushed out and bought two kinds of basil, chives, dill, parsley, and some foxglove, just for "fun." We put the foxglove in with the Calla Lily that Sebastien got me for my birthday, and everything is doing really well, except the Lily (frown). I can't figure out what is wrong with it - the leaves are mostly green, but the tips are yellowing, and the flowers drooping. Oh well. I am going to try transplanting it, into a bigger pot, but beyond that, I am not sure what to do. Since then, though, our sill has gotten a little more full. I am sure by the end of the summer we will have far too many plants out there. I bought a tiny rose bush the other day, with about seven open blooms, and five or so buds yet to open. Although I seem to have a poisonous thumb, as far as plants are concerned (usually), I seem to be alright having roses. Hopefully that will continue to be the case!
