There are about a hundred potted perennials out on my front lawn right now as the latest wintry mix hits our area, and someone dropped off a huge box of cell trays and small pots to us yesterday. Some of them will go to our local library for their gardeners workshops and to prep for their annual plant sale fundraiser, some will go to the Master Gardeners program for their spring fundraiser, and I will attempt to find space for what we end up keeping.

What's growing on with you all?

My wife grew a person this winter, so I haven't been able to even clean out last years leftovers from my greenhouse yet, but two of my spice plants (not sure if it's the right term) has sprouted again on their own (Oregano and Chives) 🥳 And I started housing a grape last year that I hope has survived winter, just have to remember watering it and repot it if I can find the time for it. My mother will probably bring me some tomato and chili sprouts if I ask her, she always ends up with way too many of both 😅

Never before have I heard of what I would call herbs referred to as spice plants, but I love it. Congrats on the new family addition.
