Monday Herb Blogging

We went up to Richters Herbs yesterday with some friends and came back with a pile of seedlings. I think that we may be done buying plants for the season, unless, of course, the eggplants I transplanted last weekend bite it. It's raining today and it's been about a week since they moved, so hopefully they'll start bouncing back. The tomatoes have finally adjusted to their new surroundings.

To the left is lime balm. I think. We bought one balm and two mints. It's kind of difficult to tell them apart. Lime balm is like lemon balm, but without the chemically overtones. We think that it'll be super in teas. Yum.


Lemon verbena


Upland cress


Silver thyme


Lesbos basil. How could we not buy it?

Hola!

Where is this robot inundation army atc exchange thing? Is it still going? It sounds cool.

I saw some bronze fennel at the herb place. It was gorgeous and would make a beautiful dry point etching. Fennels a gorgeous plant.

And yeah, I'm defending in December. Phew. I can't believe that it'll be over in sixish months.
