Love this Janey - given us the idea to maybe try a similar combination next year in waste ground at a corner of the orchard. An area of chives, mint & lavender for the bees. lol

They were nice together Mariek....the only survivor of the winter is the Chives, even the Rosemary behind was killed off. Planted there now is hardy Lavender Hidcote and a new baby Rosemary....:)
