On our trip to the Hill Country we brought back a few four-inch pots from the Fredricksburg Herb Farm. Today after I got home from work I planted some of them.
Cilantro is supposed to reseed itself but it doesn’t seem to do so very reliably for me so I put a couple of those in the garden. It is one of my favorite seasonings and it is impossible to have too much of it anyway. Next to it I planted something called “vietnamese cilantro” - just for the curiousity of it.
We picked up several new mints. Chocolate mint, apple mint and, for the cats, catmint. We’ve had the last one several times before and it usually gets dug up within a short time.
We already have a couple of good patches of thyme, but I like to fill in spots in my flower garden with it so I got more of that. Also another low-growing plant called skull-cap, with small purple flowers on it.

never tried cilantro, but I grow Mint. I use it a lot when I am canning. I grew some Orange Mint This Year. Just a hint of Orage but good. The catnip grows wild in the yard, and when I come in from the back yard all four cats are rubbibg on my feet. (Inside cats…Coyotes!)
How I wish I had a green thumb… or was your neighbor *lol*
