Herb Garden Gone Wild!

The herb forest....lemon balm gone wild!

The deforestation in process... this was about an hour's time this morning while it was overcast, sprinkling, and a cool 74 degrees!


The purple cabbage and lemon thyme are free!

The rest will wait for another day.

My flowers

 My iris were beautiful this year.  I didn't get to see much of them on night shift but here are a few pics.
 

 Brannon brought me this beautiful fiery orange plant for Mother's Day!  The bloom were gorgeous!


 I have no clue what this plant is called.  It grows in my herb garden.  It is a bird planting I'm sure. The two-tone purple is gorgeous!


 Another bird planting...Maybe there will be grapes! 



 The lemon thyme is in flower!  The bumble bees love it! I'm not sure I like the bumble bees tho and Buster definitely hates the bees!  He chases them and tries to eat them!


The lavender is in bloom by the drive.  It smells heavenly when you get out of the car.  The cat mint is peeking through the lavender.  The neighbor cat thinks this is her spot to hide.



 Lambs ear in bloom in the front flowerbed.

Lilies, lilies, lilies


















It looks like the willow tree is going to make it.  Two years ago Ken pulled the bark away because he found maggot destroying the tree.  We were afraid the tree was going to die but so far it is still growing!  It looks like some of the bark is healing.
