THE SCENT OF FRESH HERBS

























Even if you are not massively into cooking, it's nice to have fresh herbs growing in the garden.  Crushing the leaves between my fingers, I enjoy inhaling the different aromas.  You could say, I'm high on herbs!  Thyme and Oregano always evoke memories of family holidays in Spain as a child, and are my favourites...  The quickest way to grow herbs is to buy the potted living ones from a supermarket and transplant them straight into the soil.  With a little care, you can soon have them taking over the garden: Mint and Parsley can be particularly rampant, but Basil is a little harder to successfully grow.
