The herbary:
a delight for all the senses
We grow a lot of herbs! We have by far the best selection in our region of these useful,
beautiful plants. If you are into herbs and you haven't been here yet, you
are in for a treat, and a surprise if you thought we only grew natives.
Here are a few photos from our gardens. Enjoy!
Miniature comfrey and friend.
Tansy- a welcome bright spot in mid November.
Variegated African Blue Basil.
Welsh Onions- Gorgeous!
Chives, Salad Burnet, and a carpet of golden oregano.
Herbs available for 2010. There are most certainly
others that I've forgotten. Most are listed by common name, some by
botanical...
All of our herbs are grown organically.
At this point in the season (mid-June) we are sold out of many
of these, but we do still have a large assortment, and this list is useful in
that it gives you an idea of what we grow every year.
