State of the Garden (and Lila)
I meant to post a picture of yet another heart-shaped cloud (this one a rosy pink at twilight). The memory card that had the picture, though, insisted on being reformatted and dissolving the data. One minute there, the next second dissolved–play (lila) like Shiva. I offer you instead this picture of the African violet again in full bloom. It is a plant happy to be where it is.
Borage and Bee Balm and Licorice Mint
Enjoying some edible flowers (pansies, marigolds, nasturtiums, chive and basil flowers) and found myself wishing I had borage and bee balm in my garden. I’ve tried in the past, but they tend to take up more space than I have for what they offer. Perhaps I will try again anyway.
Found a seedling of Korean licorice mint at the Fresh Farm market at Penn Quarter yesterday. If it takes, it should be a nice addition to the mint, lemon balm, and verbena I use to make infusions (hot and iced).
