My mother keeps a small vegetable garden in the three balconies of our house. Its mostly like a playground where she experiments and plays around with soil, compost and green growing things. There hasnt been much produce but we have all been able to enjoy the fruits (and vegetables) of her labours...
Yellow capsicum from a plant that grew by chance from the seeds in the compost.
Tomatoes have a been a constant from the beginning, we have always had tomato plants growing in our little garden.
An abundance of mint. There, whenever we want pudina chutney or minty lemonade.
This one was quite tasty but it was also small, it didn't grow much bigger. I love the colour, its so pretty!
Many plants came and went, and many more continue to come and go as the garden keeps evolving and my mother keeps experimenting. I think it is a really nice thing when you are able to include in your food, veggies that you have grown yourself and got fresh from the plant just before cooking.
