My little garden is really taking off, we had some really warm weather lately!
I love the "lemon" herbs; lemon verbena, lemon balm, tarragon, and lemon basil. Makes wonderful teas, infusions for flans, and ricotta crepes...Being into breakfast, they can garnish, embellish or be added to so many things!!
I also have several kinds of oreganos and thymes, I love cooking with lavendar.
The fruit and basil combination is so fun and refreshing--and there's a whole world of people who have never encountered them!!
My basil died this winter (it survived the last) and even my new plants haven't taken off, so I have to set some new ones.
