Mint and cilantro

As you can see, the mint and cilantro are very happy. That's putting it mildly, actually. Before I planted the cilantro, I had to rip out half of the mint, and it's still invading the cilantro. You can see why it's so important not to plant it in the ground if you ever want anything other than mint!

This cilantro will probably go to seed pretty soon, and I'll get a few more plants and plant them in the shade where some radishes were. That should give me another month or so before it just gets too hot to grow any cilantro at all.

Jeff uses the mint for Mai Tais and other tropical drinks, and I've been using them both to make spring rolls and in other dishes.
