I love thyme too -thanks for stopping by

That is soil on the leaves - clumsy me!! The dark spots are from the cold weather we have been having. I always try to get heirloom seeds wherever possible.

No not rare - grows wild in many countries - it grows from a bulb.

Very nice - your work? I have tried doing abstract but found it difficult - I really like the Impressionist style - especially work by Monet.

Loved your comments - I must look into the tobacco plant. I grow a lot of veggies in containers and one can really see what is working. You also mentioned trap plants - I will be doing a post on that soon.

Thanks for stopping by

Yes indeed - and if you have the space, grow for your friends too

Yes it does feel that way for me too - you are lucky to see them in their masses.

Yes they do - but we are in winter here in Cape Town

Thank you

Indeed -not good for the soil long term and also our health

Thank you

Your dad had the right idea - I like the advice from the indian gentleman - well worth giving that a try.

It would be wonderful if we could all adapt some of the old methods. Thanks for stopping by

Today we have sunshine so me and the birds are loving it!

Thanks for stopping by.

Sorry for the confusion - our Cape is Cape Town and surrounds.

Thank you

Messy is good - I like a garden to be full of colour like a fruit salad.
