Backyard Herbs...

Marjoram and Greek Oregano - about 2 feet across and a foot high

French Lavender by the yoga platforms

Bay Laurel -- it dropped all the freeze damaged leaves and is thriving - yay!
I didn't take photos of the 2 groupings of salvia and thyme ... mostly I forgot, but only one area has really grown since I planted, so I'll cover by saying, "oh, not much to see there..."  :::grin::::

Finally - herbs in

I finally got my herbs planted out front after they languished in their seedling pots in my backyard for two weeks!   They are Bergamot sage (2), traditional sage (2),  greek oregano (1), hot and spicy oregano (1), and (not pictured) one variegated thyme.  The Bergamot sage leaves smelled so good when I touched them while planting -- great citrus scent!


I also stuck in one non-herb -- a flowering plant that was a gift from a friend.  I can't remember what the label said it was.  It's a pretty blue... 
 

I'll likely be adding more plants to this bed over time.  I had a lot more thyme, but I decided to plant it in the back around some stepping stones instead.
