Beautiful basil!
Basil-to-be!
Starting several varieties ( maybe not in this order; Thai, Holy, lemon, lettuce leaf, spicy globe, , purple, Genovese?) in an Aerogarden.
Some did better than others.
Do you like the Aerogarden? Do you use it a lot? Would you buy it again?
Coastal South Carolina seems amazing!My sister lives in Durham!
Which potato varietals are you growing this summer?
I’m growing La Ratte Fingerlings and I’m blanking on the name of my red skinned potatoes
I also have some seed potatoes from the variety I grew last year.
Beyond typical North American varieties, I mostly can find Dutch and French specialty seed potatoes at garden centres near me.
I hear good things about La Ratte! I think I grew them once, but with my usual limited success with potatoes. It gets hot so quickly in the “spring” here. I am about to harvest my potatoes, which I started in early February and March.
I grew “Red Thumb”, “Austrian Crescent”, both early to mid fingerlings, and a third early red one called “Purple Viking”.
I “robbed” the fingerlings about two weeks ago.
They look great-
Today’s arugula, spinach, lettuce and watercress in my new basket from Lee Valley.

Cherry harvest this year, the taste and productivity is getting better each year. Less firm and a bit more sour than the bought ones.
That’s a good idea!
Beauties
I discovered Lee Valley many years ago. I love them. I’ve had to check myself so many times to keep from buying wonderful things from their kitchen and garden departments due to loving things but not needing them.
I love that basket, have for a long time.
