This is my box of herbs. You can see catnip, chamomile and wormwood. There's dill and echinacea in there somewhere. The potted herb in the foreground is clary sage. While the herbs were all small, and I made an impulse purchase at the nursery of some snow pea starts and threw them in that box. They took up more room than I expected but they sure are good:

I wanted a box of mints. I put several kinds in here, a bergamot mint, a chocolate mint, variegated mint, plain old mint mint, and then I ended up adding in some zinnias and stinging nettles, because I heard that nettles increase the strength of your mint. I have no way of knowing if they did so or not, but I do know that I am quite wary of sticking my hand in that box now. Ouch! (I've done it a few times without thinking...):
I became a collector of tomato plants. Everytime I went to a nursery or a hardware store I would see a kind that I did not have and bring it home. I ended up with 26 of them. They are falling all over eachother; Early Girls, Better Boys, Brandywines, Yellow Pears, Sunsugars, Rainbow Cherries(?), Cherokee Purple, and....I think that may be it(???)

I have another pic to post here and I am not being allowed to do so! So there, that's not even the half of this crazy garden teeming with plant friends but I'm gonna call it a day.
