I'm anxious to hear what folks have to say. I purchased some herbs a couple of weeks ago and am keeping them outside until I figure out what to do with them! lol

I have chives, sage, thyme, and mint that come back every year. I try to plant a rosemary bush every year. they die off here in the north come fall. i like parsley and basil too but don't seem to have much luck with them growing lately. they are all outside where the sprinkler hits them. i cant keep anything alive in the house, i get to sewing and forget to water!

oh yeah, and lavender

I see that you live in NC they will THRIVE down there. I live in OH and most of mine come up every year, I have them in my garden as well as in long containers around my hot tub, they smell sooooo wonderful!

I'll plant tomatoes, as usual, but luckily, my dad is a farmer and sells on a farmers' market-I get all I need from him, and since so much usually goes to waste, this year with rising prices, I've decided I'll also can!
