tiny balcony garden

It's much simpler than last year. It's mostly Nicotiana flowers in pots now. Swiss Chard continued to look diseased, I couldn't picture myself ever eating any of it, so threw those all out. Blah. I've also got a few other edibles- one pot of Mint on each side, this lovely two-year-old Pepper plant which is getting nice bold color to its leaves- and I've actually had a few small (strong!) peppers- diced onto pizza.
one remaining Parsley in the hanging planter
I switched position of the Oregano and Lemon Balm; Oregano needs more sun
and this one does okay in the shade
And in the other corner against the interior wall I've got the Ginger and Boston Fern.
That's it. Oh, and an indoor plant summering out here- Aloe Vera.
