Phenomenal lavender. I’m in central arkansas and it’s the only lavender I can keep alive in this heat and humidity.
I am growing basil, oregano, thyme, lemon thyme, rosemary, tarragon, sage, marjoram, and dill.

I have loved building my herb/flower bed. I put it where I spend the most time. It brings me so much joy. And the smells! So wonderful. This year is: basil, sage, chamomile, mint, lemon balm, calendula, stevia, and toothache plant. I add in cosmos and zinnias for height and color. My lavender failed and I need to get my hands on some tulsi seeds for next year. I may still get some coneflower and yarrow starts. I can’t believe I’m saying this… but I love it more then my veggie garden.

THANK YOU! 😊 I’m so excited to chat herbs with you since I took an herbal course last year. I’m into growing a wider variety of herbs this garden year, dehydrating as needs, using fresh as can, and formulating teas that I put into bags or seasoned honey or body products that I can give away as gifts to friends, family and coworkers. So far everyone loves a free gift at random times - cheers up the mood instantly. 😊

Excellent choices! I've been involved in herbs for a decade. Started when diagnosed with MS, which, through an herbal healer, was gone in 7 months. Just one thing..Peppermint and Echinacea are hybrid herbs. The human body is alkaline so the food and drink going into it should also be alkaline.

This is great! Thank you! I'm an RN and love to add homeopathic methods and remedies where I can. I want to learn more. :)
I love stinging nettle, osha, and licorice root. Stinging nettle by far is my favorite. I got in a car accident years ago and had flare ups of pain in my neck and shoulders. I stung myself with the leaves and it brought so much relief to that area. Definitely not for everyone but I believe it helps. Also with thyroid issues in my family I’ve drank it as a tea when I started having symptoms and high tsh antibodies. I reversed my numbers with that and cutting out gluten. I just reintroduced gluten after 6 years gluten free and don’t over do it. I do believe it causes thyroid problems. I hope you can keep your thyroid symptoms at bay and use herbs to aid in that process.

I too was gluten free for 8 years and recently started reintroducing it. Like you I don’t overdo. I’ve come to believe it was actually the pesticides/ herbicides in the non organic gluten products that probably caused my issues. Now I only use organic flour and make sourdough bread..I have no problem eating it. I also only eat Italian slow dried pasta. How about you?

I have chronic pain due to a accident. I'm now in the middle of self herbal medicating due to lack of prescription medicine not addressing the problem. I'm sure there must be something alternative that will work , I just haven't found it yet. Your experience caught my interest , as I have used supplements in conjunction with pain relief , for years.and natural has to be better. Thankyou for sharing your knowledge. 😊
I'm focusing on the medicinals just like you this year! I did a huge seed haul from Strictly Medicinal: White Mojntain Sage (hopefully it will grow successfully here if i baby it a little) Comfrey, Arnica Meadow (will hopefully grow here in Central Arkansas better than its more commonly known variety, Montana), valerian, wormwood, witch hazel, chicory, enugreek, bergamot (specifically for tea), evening primrose, skullcap, mullein and of course the usual suspects you listed. It's a lot.

I’ve got all the basils 🤣, lemon balm, calendula and sage. I’ve tried for 3 years now with chamomile,lavender and rosemary. Chamomile has always been a bust and the lavender usually dies at some point, as does the rosemary. I’ve tried to sow my own seeds with no luck. I’m going to just sow a clamshell of chamomile and hope for the best. The same for the rosemary. I have 7 lavender plants I sowed from seed that are still a bit tiny. I’m so afraid to even attempt transition them over. 😂I sowed holy basil but it looks nothing like the one you showed in the photo. They are seeds from 2 separate brands. Idk why my leaves appear to be bigger and a bit deeper green. I’ll have to look into that! My echinacea never pops up. I’ve run through to seed packs and still I got nothing. I have no idea where I’m going wrong.😢 Thanks for sharing and being such a wealth of knowledge and information! 💜
I live in Rome GA, and I'm b7 , so it's really hard because of the heat, it's really hot here, so my herbs don't really do well, 😮
I wonder if there’s a difference between the different lavenders. I’ve found that the French lavender which I think is the common one sold in our big box stores and a lot of the nurseries. What I’ve found that works well in our climate is the Spanish lavender. I’ll have to look to make sure, but I’ve tried growing lavender since I started gardening and only came across the Spanish one last year. I had no hopes for it but it’s been prolific in the raised bed this year and about to have some flowers soon!! I’m excited for it. It came back through the cold and while there were some that died, it is doing fantastic!
