But it's supposed to get cold and rainy (indeed, the temperature has been dropping since I woke up this morning) and even... snowy. To the indoor garden!
Yesterday, I obtained rosemary, pennyroyal. and catnip plants. Since they (obviously) can't be planted outside just yet, and the mints need to be contained and the rosemary can be overwintered indoors anyway, I planted all of them in pots that can be buried in the garden (catnip and pennyroyal in one, rosemary in another). I also found borage seeds (!!) and selected snap bean and sunflower seeds. The brats have gone absolutely nuts about the catnip plant, tearing the bag I carried it in to shreds. My DamnCat in particular wolfed down the few leaves I gave her.
Oh, and I sowed some spinach seed in a windowbox, but now I have to keep it indoors until this funny snow business clears up. Invisible spinach!
In non-stasis news, my mystery orchid that lives in my shower dropped its original flowers but is setting buds now.
