An AeroGarden is agriculture on a very small scale. They are individual hydroponic gardens that come complete with lights--about the only way I can grow anything indoors in our house with its sparse ambient light. But they allow me to grow herbs, lettuce, flowers, chili peppers and cherry tomatoes all through the long, cold, gloomy New England winter. This is the edge of a leaf of Red Sail lettuce. The Red Sail is one of a few heirloom lettuces that I've got growing in the AeroGarden in our kitchen. (I confess to being an addict--I have seven of the things, six at home and one in the airless, lightless, soulless cube at my office.)

Nice detail and color.....appreciate the info on the AeroGarden.
ReplyDeleteLoving that color and those sharp little details!
ReplyDeleteThe details are so sharp . . . would love to have fresh homegrown veggies in the winter.
ReplyDeleteNice color!! Every time you talk about your aero garden I think that I should have one. The problem is that green things don't grow well if they know I'm around!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful detail in this one!
ReplyDeleteYou and the Lensbaby are getting on so well! This is so inviting, great light and color and detail.
ReplyDeleteI guess the comment thing is fixed -fingers crossed
