Using Herbs

I use so many of the delicious herbs, vegetables and fruits growing in my own garden, I thought maybe it would be fun to have a 'garden' section here. Not only do we have numerous fruit trees growing and producing nearly year round, but we also have perennial herbs and biennial vegetables. That's in addition to the summer herbs and vegetables!

Many years ago, my mother and I slipped (started from stem cuttings) some of her fuschias for my garden. Over the subsequent years, I've started many new plants using a variety of methods; seeds, stem cuttings, softwood cuttings, layering.
