Mint condition…


Come mid-August many herbs begin to flaunt their colors—mostly purples and blues. If you have extras, it’s nice to let some go to flower for fragrant herb bouquets. Or you can mix your herb cuttings with cut flowers from the garden. Herb bouquets make great kitchen companions--enjoy the blooms then snip off the leaves for cooking. In the bathroom small containers of mint, lavender and lamb’s ear look great and add a fresh smell to the air.
