I love munching on the flowers as I walk the garden. Beautiful addition to salads and hors d'oeurve plates. Heart ease...I like that. Hollyhocks have reseeded and the oregano is claiming way too much space!

The offset makes this job easier.Altoon Sultanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16743040814034732581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7658518583188826551.post-69628553062392761382010-05-19T10:02:19.424-04:002010-05-19T10:02:19.424-04:00I can't seem to keep these going and they are ...I can't seem to keep these going and they are so charming.
