I love growing herbs so I'm reviving this thread!

Yesterday, I got my borage, feverfew, german chamomile, lemon balm, romanesco basil, and dark opal basil planted in cells. It took me all afternoon because I kept being distracted by my garden calling out to me for a visit. I've already planted a lot of basil in the ground but I need lots more to go into pots so I can bring them in when fall arrives. I don't have enough pots yet for all the seeds I planted, but I will definitely be foraging for some more containers before they are ready to transplant.

I also planted my goji berry seeds and some marigolds. Not a big fan of marigolds but they are beneficial plants for many edibles so they will get some prime real estate in several places. I try to be careful to yield some garden space to companion plants for my edibles so they will thrive.

I'm still missing some herbs I want to grow. One of my neighbors promised me some cilantro seeds yesterday that I will plant with my melons. Tarragon is still needed. They make great companions for eggplants and I will be growing several eggplants and want them to be very happy.
