Gardening for realsies.

Oh, my am I getting excited. So here are some herbs I am thinking definitely yes to planting- can not go too crazy this year because I am restricted to containers.
Add eggshells to containers...also compost (start mincing things)
Lemon balm and oregano I would really enjoy. They are also both in the mint family (nother thing I'd like to plant) so they would do well I think in containers.

I was also thinking zucchini, and maybe cuke but I'd like to try something new, maybe peas. I'll need to construct some ladders though. I think for this spring equinox I will do a big purge and get rid of a bunch of shit that I truly do not need.

Veg: zucchini, cuke, peas?, tomato, lettuce

Herbs: oregano, lemon balm, mint, parsley, chamomile, rosemary, basil
Plant chamomile next to lavendar
Maybe pull dying pepper from thyme planter and add sage there?
1 large square container (could potentially make another LARGE container)
3 med. large (5 gall. containers)
3 (maybe) small herb cont.
2 rather small herb cont.

Deadly plants:
Digitalis and Aconite
datura, wolf's bane, digitalis (aka foxglove), and monkshood (aka aconite)
