Re: Gardening
I love gardening, although I am rookie at it. Living in a flat my gardening is limited to the balcony, on summer days, and the window frames
Anyhow, right now following plants are sunbathing on the balcony:
Basil
Thyme
Sunflowers (although they havent blossomed yet)
Ipomoea or White Feather (not blossomed)
Iberis Umbellata (not blossomed)
Tomatoes
Carrots
Sugar snap peas
Green beans
Coriander
Dill (difficult plant, it's really giving me a headache)
I'll try and post some pictures soon, inshallah, love this thread

Aww, they are beautiful.
Here are my babies
my sugarsnap peas, they are a bit yellow, but that's because I recently moved them.
One of my sunflowers, it still hasn't blossomed
one of my successes, my basil
and thyme is a lovely plant
my umbellata has blossomed though, it started yesterday and it already smells wonderful. I'll try to post photos of it, insh'allah.

Re: Gardening
Asalamu Alaikum,
Woooooow your flowers are sooo pretty Moonstar. MashaAllah.
I've been growing herbs for awhile, but otherwise I can't get anything else to grow in this desert.
Fi AmanAllah
