Thinking too much about plants

On my porch:

- 12 containers of kale

- 3 containers of broccoli

- 4 tomato plants

- planter of sweet peas

- container of basil

- 2 hostas

- 3 columbines

And inside:

- 21 jade plant cuttings, among other things

And that's all - quite a lag between the last post.

Listening to the Deep Roots Pete Seeger tribute show. The world may seem to be in a very fragile state, but how lovely is it that there are individuals and activists raising their voices against the injustices surrounding us. Rest in peace Pete Seeger.
