After much shopping with [livejournal.com profile] alpha_angel, I have mint, thyme and rosemary plants and a cherry tomato. And leather gardening gloves, safety glasses, earplugs, cheaparse hand trowel and fork (bends a bit too much), potting mix (half of which is K's), a birthday present for Mum (Hi Mum :)), lemons, a lemon squeezer, icecube tray, plastic measuring cups, buckets, scary top and comfy trousers. And stocked up on Whitticars Dark Ghana while it was on special for 2 for $5 (Woolworths, NZ) for chocolate coating strawberries at a later date.

And after a bit of work clearing part of the back corner, I have a cleared area with a tomato plant and space to put other plants, and the mint, thyme and rosemary repotted into hanging baskets on the back porch. There is one spare hanging basket and another if I can reach it down the back of the porch (way, down).

So what other plants would be good? Edible is nice, but ground covering so I don't have to weed is really appreciated. Like smell :)

Time for a shower (starting to itch...), more laundry, dishes and a bit of lemon cordial making before dinner.

It's often labelled "lawn cammomile". It gets a bit straggly in a shady spot, but I hear no hint of that being a problem for you.
