The Coriander will love my living room window Anna
They will hear my singing all day.
What's not to like?

@Ineeddentures In the US coriander (the herb) is called cilantro. And the spice is called coriander.

They really did
We are a bit concerned about just how big they might grow

Nice looking plants and hope those cherry tomato plants grow as well, I have a taste for cherry tomatoes but afraid to order any because regular tomatoes usually do not tase like anything at all,

@Ineeddentures no place to grow them in my apartment or on my porch where they would be knocked over by feral cats and eaten by possums.

If you can buy young cherry tomato plants and give them a decent feed and look after them, the tomatoes will be really tasty

That's a good way to stay out of the heat.

Well heat isn't the problem here.
Theft from the garden would be

Oh wow, you have them indoors! I think they’d love the outdoors since they enjoy the sun to grow strong and healthy. But if the spot where they’re planted gets enough sunshine, I guess they’re better off there, as they’re protected from pests that could harm them outside.

@Ineeddentures oh that’s why you kept them indoors. I didn’t know the situation there until you have described it right now.

They wouldn't have a hope in hell outside in the garden
The slugs or snails would get them
This year is bad for slugs and snails.
Snails even climb up my raspberries and I can't take the rasps inside

I have catnip and a house plant in my window garden. Maybe I should bring the pepper plant in. It is doing crap outside.
