This year I planted sage, rosemary, thyme, and oregano. In case you’re about to ask, I don’t like parsely.
The cool thing is they’re all (theoretically) perennials. My sage and oregano from last year died, but I changed things; I used different breeds and planted deeper and used more plant food and hell, I’m an optimist. My lavender from last year is doing great, I might even get buds this year (last year it didn’t flower, but it was the first year).
My three year old rosemary isn’t looking good, so I cut it all the way back and took it out of the pot and put it in the soil. I think this is its only hope. I think it’s the rosemary version of dialysis. Meanwhile my new rosemary last year (a different breed with longer leaves) died when I brought it inside. So, I got one of those and put it in the pot I took the old one out of. (It’s nice to have some rosemary indoors in the winter.)
La, spring.
