I have sproutlings! Yay! I received a barberry bush in trade last year, and it didn't do anything on the surface, but it must have rooted well because it's leaving out and growing!

My comfrey rooting has got several leaves too... :)

I have honeysuckle in the window that needs to get transplanted somewhere - no idea where, except outside, lol!

Last but not least, I have two rootings (now plants) of something from Maylasia, also in the window... no idea what it is, lost my notes on it.

Maybe I'll get pics this weekend...

Isn't it fantastic. I love the new growth everywhere. My mints are doing their leaf drop thing at the moment. I'm glad someone told me that's apart of their growth pattern. Cause now I know not to throw them away when they do this. Hopefully when they come back it will be nice enough I can finally plant them outside.

Hi TK,

I guess mine are doing the same thing, my chocolate mints are looking straggly... I put one of them on the bank of my spring, and planted some angelica, chammomile, bee balm and nettles there too... looking for other things that don't mind moisture. My field mint and spearmint are just getting leaves. Getting ready to start my basils (all different varieties) inside... hadn't had time or energy due to work. My other half has started several (I mean a ton) of melon seeds and pumpkins, all different varieties... he's gonna have his hands full! We got some yellow watermelon in trade from landofoz and it only took it 5 days to sprout! I'm glad I'm just an herb nut, lol! They can grow just about anywhere... I got some purple daylilies and lime nicotiana today, got them planted. I really need to go through my seeds again and get some more of those going besides the basils. I planted some outside, to cold stratify, and boy has it been cold... only my calendulas are brave enough to come out of their "shells" lol!

Chatty has now left the building...
