Sage

Common sage is in the center of the wine barrel, because it is supposed to grow the largest and stay alive for a few years. I began the seedlings indoors 2 weeks before anything else because I was so impatient.

The sage attracted the first pest... one of the 3 seedlings was leaning over from the weight of a pile of baby aphids at about 4 weeks. I need to thin the seedlings, as there's supposed to just be one every 15".

This is the strongest seedling on easter, along with one of the zinc labels my mom gave me.
