Last weekend, I decided it was finally time to plant some of the herbs that I had been thinking about. Â I decided that planting them in a pot seemed way easier than planting them in the ground. Â So I picked up a few pots from Homegoods and went to work. Â I decided to plant basil, parsley, and rosemary in one bigger pot together as well as lavender (cause it smells dreamy) and mint in their own separate little pots. Â Mint is apparently not something you should plant in the ground or in the pot with other things because it is so invasive that it takes over. Â Mean old mint.
I found these herb markers after I had already planted my herbs in the sale section at Anthropologie. Â They only had three different ones and they happened to be the same three herbs that I had chosen to put in the same pot. Â I felt super lucky. Â Go scoop some up before they are gone gone gone.
See how menacing he looks?
I put the lavender and mint up on my outdoor table. Â Can you believe how good lookin all these pots were that I found at Homegoods? Â These metallic puppies were $7.
Here are some other things happening in my backyard…
The pink petals have almost all fallen off my tree after the stormy storm last weekend. Â But there are a few stragglers.
The ones that jumped ship banded together to make me some pink snow.
Baby birds, I hope you are okay.
My yellow jasmine is in full bloom and she is pretty as a picture.
With tiny pops of purple from neighboring bushes that seem to be bowing down to her beauty.
Happy Thursday guys!
Oh, I loooove your herbs! Looks great, friend!
Pretty! Those herb labels are realll good lookin. Beauty pots too.
Those shiny pots sure are dazzling; 1st one is pretty awesome too…….I think your whole yard should be mint though, so you should just plant it everywhere; think about how good it would smell.
Thanks guys! Kat, lets do your yard first as an experiment and see how it goes!
Oh My! how pretty! I planted herbs too but mine are not doing as well as yours; you must have a “green thumb”! Keep up the good work.
