scented seedlings

lavender tomatoes

A couple of my seedlings smell great already. The best is the lavender. I only have 4 tiny little plants, growing very slowly, but they have a strong and wonderful scent.

Other scented seedlings are basil, thyme and tomatoes. If I move trays of any of these, its like being in the garden and smelling the air and sunlight.

I was told rabbits do not eat lavender. Yes they do, all the lavender which was poking through my fence has been neatly nibbled off by those long eared, cute pests.

Yummy! I just love lavender! That reminds me- I think I need to shear mine off now. Happy spring to you!

I'm getting about 1 lavender sprout for 50 seeds planted. Wish I could do better.

Very cute. I understand why you're excited. It's witnessing the beginning of life.
