garden update

Yay, there has been a bit of progress with the new plants/former seedlings!
The chamomile is slightly bigger, the anise is at least 2x bigger, the morning glories are tall and green (but no flowers yet) and the sesame seed jar/terrariun is sprouting all sorts of new shoots!
Last weekend I took a big risk and started a couple eucalyptus seeds, but it's gotta stay warm, which it hasn't. This is Portland, Or, the most schizophrenic city when it comes to weather. For instance, starting Saturday we turned on the a/c, and by yesterday were considering the heater again...Anyway, I'm wondering if I should just keep it under my bathroom light or bedside lamp until it starts to sprout.
After two days of carrying my largest bowl outside to water the herbs, I also decided I need to splurge on an actual watering can. There's a new nursery just down the street from where I live, so this weekend I'll give them a visit, and get round to more garden pictures.
Hopefully I'll have more info on the nursery and some pics to post by Sunday, although Tony's band Stormwreck is playing Saturday night and I've heard it'll be a late show, so could be I'll be recuperating.
