In the space where there once was tansy is now the basil (lemon, cinnamon and sweet) bed with the lemon verbena that was in the house for the winter. The lemon verbena has come back nicely since being attacked by white flies. I think I will put the lemon verbena in the garage this coming season. I think it will stay dormant and have better air circulation. Some seasons our lemon verbena holds its leaves and actually gets a little stronger. That's what happened this past season. We went to Florida for a week and came back to a bonanza of leaves and then it struggled through the winter on a windowsill. It is doing just fine now. I'll be making lemon verbena bread soon. The Herbal Husband's favorite. Here is the
recipe if you would like to make it as well. I'll be able to monitor the basil as well and make jelly and salads when necessary. We got the new kids planted today. We'll take a break tomorrow since it is supposed to be in the high 80's. Too hot to work. Hope you are having a great weekend wherever you are.
