Thinking garden, as we all do at this time of year.
Perennials....The Lavender in my garden thrives even in clay soil. I harvest the seeds...
what do I do with them all?
Lemon Verbena.... my go to lovely, fresh. Would love to over winter it, dehydrate the leaves makes a lovely lemon scent for baking.
Scented Geraniums...another favorite they come in many different scents, my favorite is the Lemon Rose, these I cannot find locally and usually order from a greenhouse. I would love to find a way to use these leaves as well. The flowers are small, but the leaves oh my they smell good.
Mojito Mint. this is an invasive little plant, I've pulled and keeps growing. We use it to make Mojito's on the hot summer days of July. I've not really found a culinary use for it.
