This morning I planted my herb box. The last few years I have just had basil, parsley, thyme and mint in containers. I have read that mint can take over a garden and basil if it reseeds its self will be everywhere, so used pots. This year I have a box from work that I have segmented into 7 sections to grow my herbs. I planted spearmint, peppermint, thyme, parsley, coriander, lime basil and sweet basil. I had initially planned an herb box for last year, but that quickly became the carrot/potato box. So this year I wanted to make sure I put the box in place. The containers look a little junky and just working on tidying everything up.
I also planted some sunflowers in the bottom flowerbed against the blacksmith shop. I planted Russian giants and I think it was something like autumn fire. Just hoping to give a little more color down there and perhaps have some flowers for the table.
