All the plants!

[thistlechaser]

I'm starting this backwards. I went out to buy a bench or small table, something I could set up pots on, but instead I found lots of pots and no table!

I got a lot more than I intended to, too.

First thing I spotted were these tiny little pots, maybe one inch high, with different sorts of flowers. At 88 cents each, I bought three different ones. They came with their own little bits of soil and seeds, and were just so darned cute. Those I started tonight.

Second thing was a "herb garden". A long container, soil, and three different herbs. Two of the herbs were ones I didn't really need, but it was so cute I got it anyway.

I got a set of three small pots all attached to a tray, very cute, but now I'm thinking they might actually be too small. :/ I need to get a bigger pot for when I get live plants from the farmer's market.

The last thing I got was a strawberry pot (again with soil and seeds). The pot was so cutely painted and had lots of little holes for runners, I had to get it. (Sensing a theme here? So cute!)

Big Lot (a dollar store type place) is actually not very cheap at all. Well. Cheap quality, not cheap prices. I should have run next door to OSH (hardware store) to look for benches/tables, but one store per day is about my shopping limit. Maybe tomorrow!
