Since I kinda/sorta photographed the driveway crop tanks for my then and now post last Friday (that’s a new name I thought of for the stock tanks, and I love it), and this week I wrote about all the edible and “cuttable” crops growing in Linda’s garden, well I figured it was time to look at what I’m growing this year in this space just outside our back door…
In the large black pot on the far right (above), basil. A summer without fresh basil isn’t really a summer at all.
In the cutting garden tank (one for veg, one for vases) is a crazy assortment of things…
I’ve never cut a stem from this Russelia equisetiformis for a vase, I wonder how it would do?
I was frustrated some seeds I’d sown in the tank hadn’t gone anywhere (more on that below), so when I saw starter plants of these ‘Mermaid Blue’ Lisianthus (Eustoma russellianus) for cheap I thought what the heck, I’ll try them! Kris at Late to the Garden Party has been using Lisianthus in her vase combinations for years and I’ve always been intrigued by them.
What I didn’t realize is that I’d bought dwarf Lisianthus. Yep. These plants max out at 8″… that means really small vases.
So it turns out there’s a theme at work in my cutting garden tank. Seeds that went nowhere, plants I bought that I didn’t realize were dwarf…
That’s the driveway crop tanks for 2025, along with several spiky plant friends…

Bird lovers and business leaders await verdict on a long-fought proposal to build up to 100 turbines
More people have heard of Robbins Island than have seen it. Separated from Tasmania’s north-western tip by a stretch of water that can be navigated only at low tide, the island is nearly 10,000 hectares of heathland and woodlands, paddocks, unusual geology and wetlands, all ringed by pristine beaches.
The island has been owned by the Hammond family, who use it to run Wagyu cattle, since the 1960s. Further back it was home to the Pirilyunya people for tens of thousands of years.

Weaver ants have cracked a teamwork puzzle that humans have struggled with for over a century — instead of slacking off as their group grows, they work harder. These tiny architects not only build elaborate leaf nests but also double their pulling power when more ants join in. Using a “force ratchet” system where some pull while others anchor, they outperform the efficiency of human teams and could inspire revolutionary advances in robotics cooperation.
