T hose look great. My gut is growing just looking at them. Heh. :-)

The rosemary in front of the house (eastern exposure) is still huge and still perfectly green, despite OK’s recent bitter cold. Didn’t get arou8nd to covering it, so I’m totally mystified as to how it survived, when the 2020/2021 winter killed every bit of the previous rosemary I’d had.

What I wouldn’t give to have an Edit function . . . I promise I’m not “typing under the influence”.

My indoor Rosemary is still doing well. South window, on a saucer of water for extra humidity and I mist her and turn her once a week. Saturdays are Houseplant Care Days around here.

The clippings I was rooting made it until this week, then started losing leaves/needles, even with the proper TLC, so I composted them.

I’m ruthless that way - perform for me, or into the compost bucket you go! ;)
