What better thing to do on a weekend of highs around 100F than spend time outside on the porch planting things?

Herbs & tomatoes

The romaines of the day

This year’s haul:

  • Basil (sweet, purple, Thai)
  • Thyme (common)
  • Oregano (Greek, hot)
  • Lettuce (Romaine, two curly varieties)
  • Mint
  • Cilantro
  • 2 tomatoes (Sunbrite)
  • Lavender
  • Rosemary
  • Variegated sage

The lettuce was started back in April and won’t last much longer (I already pulled some of it to make room for basil). I’m not sure what I’ll do with the remaining space — maybe some late-season strawberries?
