My Trip Salcedo Farmer’s Market and Manila Seedling Bank

I went to Salcedo Farmer’s Market today to pick up some stuff from Gil Carandang. Couldn’t really stay for long as it was raining. Couldn’t take pictures, again, as it was raining.

Here’s a cutting a friend of mine gave me of rosemary. It’s been in that yogurt cup for 2 weeks now. Since it’s not dead yet and it’s looking ok so far, it looks like it’ll root in a couple more weeks.
