We don't have a full veggie garden, but always have fresh lettuce, beans, spring onions, and capsicums growing! You can really taste the difference!

Alisonjones, that is great.  Even if you can grow a little parsley on your window sill it is really nice to add to a meal.

If only I could grow parsley I would be happy.  No matter what I do it simply does not grow for me :( .  However, I have a  plan ..... (this may, or may not, be commented on again in the future!)

Many, many and even more years ago I was told that if you plant parsley you will become pregnant!

OMG, I am going to pull out all the parsley.  It is even growing in the pebbles.

Maybe it's as well my parsley has died ... I think I will cancel my plan!!

Mine seems to seed and then the new ones come up, so hope I’m safe. 😀😀

Yum ... passionfruit.  Many years ago I used to make passionfruit butter for scones, it was lovely.  Last weekend I prepared my smallest bed for winter and mulched it over, hopefully by spring I will find something, other than parsley, to plant in there!
