Hello from my fireside! After a busy season, I’ve had a lovely break from all things gardening – ok, most things gardening – and am gearing up for a new season. I noticed that I had promised a post about my herb collection months ago, but never came through. Don’t you hate it when folks don’t do what they say they will?! So, here is my post about herbs!
Most of the herbs in my current collection are culinary. I have always tried to grow as much of my menu as possible right down to the seasonings. Last year my collection included rosemary, two different kinds of oregano, lemon thyme, winter thyme, garlic chives, regular chives, fennel, dill, lovage, lemon verbena, mountain mint, apple mint, chocolate mint, peppermint, spearmint, summer savory, marjoram, sage, flat parsley, curly parsley, many different kinds of basil, cilantro, and some scented geraniums. Each year I like to experiment with new herbs.
