‘Thyme' May Be Right To Care For, Appreciate Herbs
Author: Jane Ford Source: Fort Wayne News-Sentinel (IN)
Title: ‘THYME' MAY BE RIGHT TO CARE FOR, APPRECIATE HERBS
Today while trying to keep ahead of the weeds in my garden, my hand brushed against herbs planted nearby. The perfume of the rosemary and the earthy smell of thyme were pleasant reminders that these ordinary, but very special, plants have become an essential part of my gardening experience.
Low-growing herbs are great to use as a border along a flower bed, and all herbs have colorful blooms that intermingle nicely with flowers and vegetables.
Also, there are many perennials on the long list of available herbs that will give you the pleasure of their company for years to come.

I am growing catnip, Italian parsley, curly leave parsley, basil, purple basil, rosemary, and sage. I have grown camomile but It needs to be inside during the summer. Parsley has been the most fun. Swallowtail butterfly caterpillars have taken up residence on my plants and soon they will spin cocoons.
I my next herb to add to my garden is St John's Wort and from my research there are 3 varieties that grow in Florida to choose from!
