Watered the boxwoods for 30 minutes using a drip hose. Watered the other plants also. Cilantro did not get any water yesterday and was very wilted today.

Strawberry plants seem to be flowering again. The bottom of the bag is not doing as well as the top of the bag. Plant them in a trough next time. Strawberry plants at the top of the growin' bag are looking healthy.

Christopher's purple and yellow plant is looking much healthier. It may be because it is getting regular waterings, i.e., every day, instead of once in a while.

Geraniums flowers are starting to get brown. Will have to tend to them later today since I've been busy.

Basil: checked for signs of brown spots which were there before I plucked off the infected leaves. No signs of brown spots.

Cosmos in the ground are doing well and are growing. The taller ones are about 5 inches tall already. Seems to be an easy plant to grow.

True Lavender. Gave one to C's mom for the Fourth of July, so now there are two left and they are about 3 inches tall. They seem to be doing well in their peat pots. They get water almost every day since they seem to get dry almost every day. Will continue to water whenever they are dry until they are in the ground.
