The fairy herb planter on the deck - I keep this one full of edible that the kids can sample. Right now we've got chives, lemon thyme, sage and nasturtium seedlings just popping up. Above is another "edibles" planter I made from a crate my dad gave me. I used a dollar store cat litter tray and cracked some holes in the bottom for drainage. It is full of lettuce, spinach and spring onions.

More Spring Garden Pics - Snowballs, Columbines and "Edibles" Planters

Our snowball is blooming like crazy now too - there's still a tinge of green but I suspect that by the end of today or tomorrow morning they'll be brilliant!
