While I wait on more veg to grow in the garden, I've been having a nice wander about and harvesting herbs. I've got bunches of catnip, ginger mint, lemon balm, lemon verbena, and dill drying in the doorway--it's perfect for herbs that can hang and dry. I've also had luck with the calendula this year. Between the front flower strip and the back meadow, I've been quite happy with these cheery little flowers. And of course, the chamomile is doing well. Chamomile always does well.
In a few more weeks, I'll be able to harvest these, as well:
You just reminded me to clean off some dry herbs I have hanging, and cut more for winter. Oh, and to replant some Holy Basil.....your blog is always so cheerful. Thanks.
