Can You Say, UhOooo?


I Think I may have messed up on the planting of the Pineapple Sage plant!LOL...figures! I've been reading up on it and it Seems that it grows as tall as 5 feet and can get to 5 feet round in size!! My little garden just won't hold that size plant! You can cook with it. You can add it to salsas...steepe the leaves and add it to pound cakes...Geez! I can't just pull it up and throw it away! So, the hunt for a better spot will commence...It's suppose to rain today to...Oh Well. Hope you all are having a Wonderful Tuesday!!

Be patient with your garden. Your flowers will be great. It's so relaxing when you deal with flowers.

Donna said...

Antigoni- I know but I worry about one plant taking up too much space in the garden where I could have planted more tomatoes..lolol...Happy day sweetie!hughugs

Lucky you, who has rain! Here we got more snow, and it is cold as well.
Don't like it, I want spring now!
But it's still March, so I have to wait...

My Neighbours grow sage as a borer plant and have headged it as it is so big...Looks and smells terrific as you walk their paths though.

Oh, boy. I wouldn't have to worry, I keep forgetting to water everything and they die anyway.

I planted something one time that grew so fast and big, it blocked the back door. I had NO idea! I'm sure you'll find the perfect spot! :)

Brenda said...

Plant it next to your patio, or in a big pot on your patio. Then you'll only have to step outside to snip you a hand full. I bet it smells sooooooooooooo good!

Donna said...

Where ever you decide to plant it, I think it looks lovely just where it is.

Donna said...

Wow, I didn't know sage could get that big and tall. Moving it now might just be a good idea!

We're going to have rain for the next three days. yuk.

Donna said...

Donna- It Could at That!! I'm still trying to figure out where to put it!hahaa...Happy night sweetie!hughugs


Crystal- I Have to move it because the bed is too small.
We're under tornado watches for tonight...I Hate when those happen!! Sweet night to you!! I Love the new Babies!!hughugs

Donna said...

Donna- We are too! I just pray the tornados Stay Away!!!
Happy night sweetie!!hughugs

Janice said...

I've never grown pineapple sage before, I might have to try it. If you plant it in a large pot, you could move it around the yard and the pot would restrict how large it will grow. Or could you divide it up occasionally?

Jeanne said...

Ooopps. hehe It does sound like you'll have some interesting menu choices when the time comes if you can keep it going somewhere.

The first year I gardened I planted several Datura near the front of the bed not realizing how gargantuan they would become.
