Lemon Balm Plants (Beacon Hill North)
This fragrant plant is purported to keep mosquitoes away although I suspect that’s a bit of a myth. Lemon balm is known for its medicinal properties plus the leaves can be dried to make tea. A sunny spot is required to keep this plant happy & healthy. It will spread so needs to be watched. Lots of additional info online.

Lungwort / Pulmonaria (Beacon Hill North)
This plant blooms early & the bees love it. After the flowers are gone, the silver speckled leaves continue to add beauty & interest to your garden. They are easy to grow & do well in full to partial shade.

Golden creeping Jenny (Beacon Hill North)
This bright yellow ground cover will be an enthusiastic addition to your garden. It is an easy-to-grow perennial that requires full sun / partial shade. Although it spreads quickly, it is shallow rooted & easily pulled.

hostas (Beacon Hill North)
Gifted
I have a variety of hostas to gift. They have been dug up & are ready to go. Some may look a bit raggedy this late in the season but they will be beautiful next summer. Although they do bloom, this outdoor, shade loving plant is grown mostly for its leaves.

Tall tiger lilies (Beacon Hill North)
Gifted
These orange lilies (Lilium lancifolium (also Lilium tigrinum)) are approximately 5 feet tall & very easy to grow. They do spread, but politely & in an easily controlled fashion. Apparently they are toxic to humans & cats.

Keurig coffee maker (Beacon Hill North)
Gifted
This appliance has suddenly decided that it doesn’t recognize Keurig pods & refuses to function. I don’t know if it’s just a blip or whether it will come around & start to behave. Either way, it has been replaced & is up for grabs. Could perhaps be useful for its various bits & pieces.

Two IKEA bookcases (Beacon Hill North)
Expired
Two white IKEA bookcases measuring 70” tall X 30” wide X 9” deep. I would say they are Billy Bookcases but they seem to measure a tad smaller. Each has one fixed shelf & there are 6 moveable shelves to share between the two items. There should be 2 fibreboard pieces to close off the backs but I only have one. These pieces are far from new but would be perfect for a garage, garden shed or basement storage space. If you’re interested, let me know & I’ll try to get a decent photo.
