Green Toes

So I went to the garden centre recently and saw this cat alcohol:

Uhm...
 I had no idea you could do that.

I was buying some pots for my pinapple plants.  They've rooted quite well, so I thought I'd go and buy some larger pots for them.  I read that they need 30cm pots (fkin enormous) in order to fruit, so I thought I'd just go out and buy the final size they will eventually need.  I've already got the soil outside doing nothing (it's Winter) so I just filled them up with that and voila.

It'll take them about 3 years to fill these out, apparently.


If you ignore the drying clothes, the horrible windows and the terrible side stand thing it might look nice

I've bought the strawberries in because the wind gets absolutely bitter, and it'll freeze over Winter.  Apparently the strawberries might not like that.

The mint is moulting for Winter, and I'm trying to make the rosemary grow tall on one side, medium on the second and shorter on the third, so it's a bit bald at the moment.  I don't know if that's even possible to be honest.

I'd love to have a room in a house that I could just do whatever I wanted to, but owning property isn't feasible in this life, so this is the best alternative I can come up with.  Pineapples, strawberries, mint, rosemary, cactus and a spider plant all in one area - at least it's somewhat unusual!
