Herb Garden Designs
Among the plans illustrated is one we have worked out here at the Herb Farm and elsewhere, that makes a really attractive and unusual plot.

At the centre there can be a small circular piece, with a rosemary bush, bay tree in a small tub or feature such as a sundial, according to disposition. The paths can be bordered with a lavender such as dwarf Munstead or L.`Atropurpurea Nana’; or with santolina or hyssop. The sides of the square are edged with decorative thymes, golden marjoram or similar suitable subjects, and the four triangles planted with a blend of decorative and culinary herbs. (more…)
