Anyone else grow stuff?

Dante, I envy you your garden.
I LOVE growing stuff!

There is a house we have our eye on, and it has Paw paws, tropical apples, mulberries, bananas, strawberries, mandarins, and another citrus tree that we haven't identified yet.

I haven't been able to grow much because I know we will be moving soon, so I'm growing the tomatoes in a big pot (which you've seen pics of), potatoes in a pot (we had a supermarket one sprout so I thought I'd throw it in a pot and see what happened), cilantro, lemon basil, chives, mint, and I'm trying to grow some catmint for Tigerlily.

If we get the house we want, I would like to also plant some blueberries, lemongrass, galangal, ginger, kaffir lime, and a pandan plant. Oh yes, and maybe an avocado tree, if we have space. But they get big, and I think for best yield you need two of them, one A type and one B type (from memory, I researched it awhile ago)

You might not have heard of the pandan plant if you haven't had a lot to do with Asian cooking: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandanus_amaryllifolius
I have a small one in a pot. I think it's one of my most cherished plants because it's not easily sourced where I am.

I have some galangal growing in the garden of our current home. It just the prettiest plant, I love how it looks (these photos don't do it justice but they were the best I could find at short notice)

Thank you very much Ursy!

What? You never seen a dumpling in the shape of a surprised fish wearing sunglasses before? Lol
