Herbs in my garden

I have managed to fill up all of my pot with herbs, and while I have plans to use some of all of them, I’m not going to be able to use all of all of them. So here’s a list of what I have, and if you are in the area feel free to swap or trade (or just plain ask) for some herbs, and I’d be glad to arrange a swap.

Herbs
Basil

  • genovese
  • lemon
  • purple
  • Thai
  • variegated

Chives
Cilantro
Dill (fernleaf)
Fennel (bronze, does not form a bulb)
Lovage
Mint
Parsley (flatleaf)
Rau Ram (Vietnamese Coriander)
Rosemary
Sage (variegated)
Summer Savory
Thyme

(also in garden – because I love lists)
Chicory/Radicchio
Delicata (still a wee plant)
Eggplant (Japanese)
Jalapeno
Swiss chard
Tomatoes (1 grape, 2 early girl, 1 roma)

(and I have some lettuce and some chocolate-colored cherry tomato seedlings)
