Living in an apartment in SF, I wasn't able to grow any plants. Now in the home we live in we have one of those window greenhouse things. So far I planted and grown from seed cat grass and cat nip (we love our kitties). I am also trying to grow a paperwhite, and I have thyme and rosemary not grown from seed. Pictures!

Cat Grass grows so nicely

Cat Nip is taking a little longer to grow

Paperwhite is taking a while to grow

Thyme and Rosemary

I was able to grow yams in our little apartment in SF. They have pretty leaves that grow up from the yam. You'll see, I'm growing another!
