That´s kind from them - may Allah bless them.

Remember, that with a little studing (and a lot of work) you too could change your garden as a green oasis. :statisfie

The last sunflower is waiting the bees - but they all have gone... :unhappy:

 

[sister herb]

Chilies ripe also indoors. Hot chilies:

A lot of their leaves fall. I think because air indoors is quite dry.

I harvested some chilies today:

Yesterday I found a lot of peppermint from the garden:

In the garden snow has melted again. (Well, it will return sooner or later.) On the front yard I have Siberian carpet cypress, it changes brown for the winter and green for the summer.

If I wouldn´t know that it changes its color, at the spring I might think its now totally died. :giggling:


Also leaves of Bergenia cordifolia change the color:

Garden is waiting the spring, some perennial herbs covered:

Why I am gardening:

 

[sister herb]

The growing season ended already and we are expecting snow again at the next night. This is how I like to remember my garden during the winter - and dreaming the next spring and summer and new growing in my little garden:

:statisfie A lot of everything.

 

[sister herb]

The leaves of chilis - new growing at the winter season:

When looking those leaves, it feels like the spring is coming... well, sooner or later.

 

[sister herb]

The garden season starts soon with sowing the first seeds to the pots indoors. I found today some new seeds like flowers, herbs and veggies like these tomatoes:

:statisfie Soon, soon...

 

[sister herb]

Tomatoes and broccoli have germinated already at the last few days. And 4 chilies are still alive. The spring has started here - still snow on the ground but it melts fast.

Chilies:

Broccoli seedlings have got new pots:

Well all the Brassica family you need to lime the soil, because they are susceptible to club root.

Ma'sha'Allah,

Sister Herb jazakAllah for sharing these pictures with us my mother enjoys gardening also and I help her now and then. Your garden is beautiful, and there is so much blessing in growing fruits and tress and bushes - whatever takes nourishment or shade or comfort from them you get instantaneous reward!
We have a few strawberry plants and mint leaves but I am planning to expand on that inshaAllah.

Do you grow Basil? Because my basil keeps on dying and I have no idea why. If you had any advise that would help jazakAllah!

 

[sister herb]

Sure I have basils every year. The best results I have got when I grow them in the pots.

Then it´s easier to watch out that they don´t get too much or too little sun, I can move them back indoors if weather turns too cold or wet etc.

I have noticed that they demand very warm summer, on the garden bench their growing might be weaker if summer is cold and rainy (like it was here at the last year):

But result were quite good any ways:

Also in the frame with lettuce they grew well:

Sister Herb, jazakAllah khayr for the tips. Your basil just looks so green and beautiful and bushy nothing like my said wilted leaves.

I will buy some more basil and plant it in pots, I will post pictures up inshaAllah if they are a success.

 

[sister herb]

If you buy seedlings, its easier and faster to grow them. I start with seeds:

After 2 to 3 weeks they are enough big to separate and plant again to bigger pots - one by one. It´s slowly job as plants are still very tiny and fragile. I usually use a teaspoon when I dig them up. I can plant them outside (or to their finals pots) at June as weather here is too cold before it.

I´ll send more pics later when they are bigger.
