Elledee's Herb garden

Created on Wednesday, 07 May 08

I have a stone raised bed in several spots around my house which I use to grow herbs and some flowers. Already well established is my sage, parsley (which is starting to pop up on the stone path below) egyptian onions, spearmint, peppermint, chocolate mint – all of which I try to keep in check – and chives. Looking at planting basil, coriander and nasturtiums (both flower and edible plant – bonus!) from seed – will try to get to it today! But first a little cleaning out/weeding and topping up the soil.
