I forgot to water my rosemary for 5 long days :( Poor poor thing!!! I’m sad. I hope there’s some hope left … One whole main stem has dried out and I’m left with some less than perky leaves.

I hope there’s some hope left … One whole main stem has dried out and I’m left with some less than perky leaves.

I am looking forward to grow some basil and other herbs. I tried thyme last year but it died because it didn’t get enough sun. My balcony (and neither part of my place) doesn’t get direct sunlight except towards the end of the year for just a couple of months.
