Linda, I am watching for plant swaps. New to this so I'm a bit overwhelmed, but enjoying it very much. So many forums!

Toni, my son ordered the comfrey so I'm not sure where he got it. He said it's not ready to get shoots from yet but I do belong to an organic gardening club and someone there has also requested some from me so she would be the first in line. I can make a note that if we have more to save some for you. From what I understand, it multiplies fairly easy. We have 7 goats now so we do go through quite a lot.

What do you do with your herbs? do you cook with them, use them for medicinal purposes or make teas? I just like having them in the garden for the scents. I do use some. Big Grin

I have golden Jubilee but I thought it would multiply a lot but I didn't get but only a couple volunteers. Sad I tryed anise hyssop and couldn't get it to germinate. Lots of bee balm too. You can keep the camomile though! Rolling on the floor laughing I'm not a fan. Too invasive.
