        :) :) :)

        He's exaggerating - a bit :heehee:

        This is the veggie plot - herb garden is to the right and fruit trees to the left. That's just the bottom end of the garden. :rolleyespink:

          Just a note of possible interest.

          The proper name for Lemon Balm is Melissa officinalis. Any plant that has officinalis after it's name means that it's a medicinal plant. :blue thumb:
