i don't have the greenest of thumbs (though i grew up working the land in my parents' "garden of eden" backyard).

i aspire, one day, to have a patio full of plants and vegetables and window boxes full of spices (i am currently growing some in an aerogarden from canadian tire... we'll see how that goes).

i particularly like the idea of planting items in these recycled barrels (via design sponge). they're super cute, non?
