My cherry tomatoes and herbs are the ONLY things that grew this year.

But they both are great in a salad or omelet, so I am content.

I hope you will be feeling better soon!

(((HUGS)))

Thanks. I have found that I prefer to grow the cherry tomatoes, and I have better luck with those. Chives and basil seem to be the herbs that I can do.

Parsley and carrots - same family don’t do well for some reason. Dill either doesn’t come up or dies. Rosemary and Lemon Balm just hang on and exist - don’t seem to grow a bit and then die when frost comes around.

But cherry tomatoes, basil, garlic, chives, lettuce, endive, and spinach are the main things I got this year, and that’s a good combo.
