Herb border

growing so won't take over. Rosemary is also evergreen and lives quite a while if it is happy with soil conditions. Sage has lovely blue flowers and can also last for several years if cut back when it gets leggy. Bees go crazy for any of the thymes. Oh by garjobo

Midges/mosquito help!!!
