Herbs and Vegetables

Yesterday, Calvin and I went to The Flower Bin to pick up an assortment of herbs and vegetables. I always walk away with more than I meant to buy. This year, I got:

  • Thai Basil
  • Columnar Basil
  • Genovese Basil
  • Mint Julep
  • Oregano
  • Pineapple Sage
  • Lemon Grass
  • SunSugar Tomato
  • Bush Early Girl Tomato
  • Patio Tomato
  • Fanfare Cucumber
  • Bambino Eggplant
  • Cocozelle Bush Zucchini
  • Edamame

I’ve had variations of all the herbs before. I’ve gotten a different variety of sage and mint in the past but I assume it’s mostly the same concept. I’ve had middling luck with tomatoes before so this time I put them in huge containers. The cucumber, eggplant, zucchini, lemon grass and edamame are all new. With the exception of the edamame, all were labeled to grow well in containers and I found an independent source claiming edamame also grows well in containers. Hopefully I’m not being overly optimistic.
