So, spring always put me in a flurry of growing and planting, and planting and planting...
I have this absolutely fabulous Sun porch (so fabulous, Sun gets a capital S) so I can grow things inside and out. Good thing too because we've had pretty rotten growing weather outside this Spring. So, here are a few of my inside projects....

Sweet Potatoes! Yes! In Canada. Being Canadian, I had no idea how to grow a sweet potato. But I love them. So, a trip around the Web showed me how to do it. The timing is wrong, but I couldn't help myself. I have to try. Even if I have a bucket of dirt in my Sun porch in November in order to harvest my sweet potatoes.
Does anyone know what the middle plant there is? It's really cool, whatever. It grows little quarter sized aster-type fuschia coloured flowers. And the edges of the leaves get a pinkish hue. I just cut it back as it grows very profusely. I've made two other good size plants from it in a year.

Where in Canada are you? I'm in Cape Breton. I love herbs, too!
I'm waaaay over in Alberta. I would love to visit Cape Breton one day it looks so gorgeous.
Oh yes, I DO love those pericallis!
Your indoor garden is AMAZING, Heather!
