Photos of the Day, balcony garden

From February 18, in my tiny recovering balcony garden...
(ps- I'm trying the english/french combo today!)

de 18 février, dans mon petit jardin sur le balcon

Inside parsley planter
Cactus and parsley. Since I don't get a lot of sun, flowers don't grow well. So, I've been using succulents to add color to my herbs.

Le cactus et le persil. Depuis que je ne reçois pas beaucoup du soleil sur mon balcon, les fleurs cultivent mal. Je utilise les cactus pour plus de la couleur.

Cactus and parsley
The cactus in the middle is actually very spiky. Not my favorite kind of cactus, but I love the flower at the top!

Le cactus dan le milieu a beaucoup des épines. Ce n'est pas mon préféré, mais j'adore le fleur d'oranger!

New planter
Up until last week, I hadn't bought a store-made planter. I caved.

Store bought and homegrown planters
Store-bought on the left, and homegrown on the right. I should note that the cactus are not grown from seed- but I did plant them in there myself.
