My little ecosystem in the city

I come from a long line of gardeners, but never tried it myself. This year I decided to try and it came so naturally. Everything’s just thriving and i absolutely love sitting outside now.

Oregano
Basil
Lavender
Tomato’s
Cucumber
Rosemary
Pepper
Strawberry
Foxglove
Cypress
Mint

What I did: immediately repot them into a nice home with terracotta planters. Potting soil and a nice little water afterwards. I’ve learned to not listen to what the net says, but the plants. I rotate between watering them on top and filling the tray at the bottom. Ladybugs love my strawberry and it’s been nice watching their little world.

I keep everything in its own pot and made zones bc I know what needs the most sun. Stakes for my cucumbers, which I’m going to let grow on the terrace.
