My herb bed outside our front window.

We built this bed early Spring 08, our choice of herbs has had to be modified, some grew too big and immediately bolted. The mint is in a seperate container behind. It has been a joy to go and clip a few before cooking.

Have you grown lovage yet? It's a great tasting herb, does get a bit rampant once it's established, and very very tall, but I think it's brilliant. Give it a try.
If only I could find my seeds, I could send some throught the post for you!

Great herb bed! I also enjoy the luxury of being able to walk out and pick fresh herbs, tried to grow a few more this year.

Thanks to Gillian and Marquerite, I am not a bad cook. been able to spend more time at it now I have retired. When I was working, if I could not cook it in 20 minutes to half an hour, we did not eat it. Now I have the time and energy to do "proper" cooking.
