Herbs In The Window

It's an unfortunate fact of life that at this latitude the winter days aren't long enough or sunny enough to grow fruit bearing plants without the help of additional, artificial light. However, certain herbs can be grown on the ledge of a window with southern exposure. My cilantro plant is coming along very well despite the fact that it hasn't even been a month since the winter solstice. And now that the days are becoming longer, I think I'll plant some chive seeds to have something to add to my baked potatoes.
