I love growing herbs, especially rosemary, basil, cilantro, and thyme.

You must live in a nicer climate. I'm in zone 5 and I'm watching snow melt over grass that already needs a cut.

Typical spring mixumup weather here. 🌱

On the bright side, I've already harvested chives and onion greens.

True, @Tweety68 . I like chocolate mint, too. Pepp is my fave (and these two have tidier growth habits than some).
