Duh 🤦🏻‍♀️…

Rosemary

I’ve tried many times to bring herbs inside before frost hits them. I usually manage to keep them alive until Thanksgiving, when they die.

This year was different now that I have more plants. I picked up a basil plant in the fall for $2.99 instead of a package for $2.99.

It needs to be watered every day or it gets droopy. That’s when it hit me. I was watering my herbs when I watered my house plants.

All of my indoor plants besides a spider plant are some form of succulents which don’t need to be watered as much as regular plants.

Ah, so that’s why my herbs dried up and died. I make sure that all of my herbs are watered if it hadn’t rained , why in hell did I think I didn’t have to water them indoors? 🤓

It’s mid February and my rosemary and sage are still alive! Yay!

Sage

This makes me so happy and at the same time like a big dummy it took me this long to figure out.

My huge rosemary I got from a friend died last winter. I kept moving it around because it was loosing needles but did I think to water it more?

No, I didn’t. Duh, Julz. That is all.

  1. Yup. Took me years, but the parsley and rosemary need a light watering every other day AND spritzing with a water bottle every day. Makes all the difference. Camille
