I Did have some Chive seeds to plant but absolutely no deferred gratification!So, the Chives you see are a Waitrose special.
There is Spearmint in the wooden pot and Parsley in the terracotta one.
I also got rid of the Euphorbia today.
It was getting big and near to seeding.
Following Sassy's advice about the general Pikey nature of Euphorbia, it's gone.
It was an experiment. I'd never seen one full grown and was curious.
Now I have!
It has been replaced with a Canary Palm thing, which is fecking vicious.
I have sliced my hands on the leaves, spiteful bastard!
I love it.
It may not stay where it is, but for the moment it's cool.
I've also discovered that some of the snails I have been 'rehoming' are quite rare in my area and are protected throughout Europe.
Ooops!
These are the L'esgargot that French People like.
Eating something equipped with a 'Love Dart'?
The Dirty Bastards.
They were brought to Britain, two and a half thousand years ago by the Romans; allegedly.
They left my garden yesterday, via an over arm throw administered by me.
Not a Roman.

When we got to this house, there was a washing up bowl full of chives, so I've repotted them, some eejit had also planted mint in the flowerbed....so, Kev spent a sweaty afternoon pulling up it and all its roots that were firmly anchored in Australia. Now I just have one pot left of it. We also have a big old planter of oregano. Sadly, none of it is very creatively displayed. Ah well, next year maybe.
Oregano is very forgiving as long as it's planted in sun.
It can be pruned right back and loves it.
Cuttings are easy if you have a bit of rooting hormone and some pots!
