gardening: what i want

between the last two tests i looked at the realty listings to see if there was a nice house with an herb plot i wanted.

i can buy vegetables at a vendor, and there are a lot of community gardens.

but i can't buy flowers at a vendor, and community flower gardens are few and in high demand.

so i considered moving houses to get some herb plots, but there aren't any in nice sunny locations.

that's what i want: a sunny house where i can grow herbs in my shady yard.

in a perfect house, i could have one plot for crop, one plot for flowers, and a little patch in the basement for mushrooms.

since i mostly am out in the world traveling, my garden doesn't sustain me; i buy what i want at the grocer's.

but i can't buy herbs. i don't even know that i'd want to be a dedicated herbalist, but i like the idea of being able to experience all of what's available in my little world.

so: in my wild fantasy life, when i buy a house (maybe an expensive one), i want to be able to customize the plots. it's my house; why can't i decide to plant shade trees and have an herb garden alongside my vegetable plot?

come to think of it, i'd like to be able to customize my house.

buy a carpet, maybe.

  • I am with you on this Flask my friend! I agree. I have a home in Alakol and there is plenty of space for an underground basement for planting, herbs, flowers etc.. I like sunny open areas too perhaps a new world can be created that has a little of everything,including homes that integrate all plants and herbs and tree's, perhaps the new world  with a little of everything can be called "ALPOH"  A little piece of Heaven!

  • There are 3 community veggie and 3 community herb gardens.

    However, I would really love to see a house with an herb garden, that isnt one of the cave houses. I personally think they are dark and sad.

  • Remote gardening like remote herdkeeping would be very nice with an automated sprinkler system, planter and picker.  You would fill it with water, seeds and unload the picked items.  Why should the pig and butterfly farmers have all the fun?

  • maybe it just seems like there are fewer community herb gardens because you can't buy herbs at a vendor, so people without dark house HAVE to use them.

    anyway, there are only a few of them, and they're in high demand.
