First stages of my balcony garden this year. The garden is doing amazingly well. I have to get more photos tomorrow. I have arugala, carrots, passionfruit, morning-glory, raspberry, lemon grass, goose-berries, strawberries (they didn’t do so well this year though) and some random other things, some of which I am not sure what they are…and of course our beautiful but hungry cat, Mishka.
