Herbs - They're a lot more than just seasoning for spaghetti and meat dishes. These hard working little plants were our medicine before the days of big Pharma, and saved many lives. They disinfect, deodorize, and keep us healthy.

Rosemary: Mosquito Deterrent and Hair Rinse

Thyme: Household Cleaner

Mint: Keeps Mice Away

Lemon Balm: Fatigue Treatment

Oregano: Fights the Common Cold

Peppermint: Headache and indigestion soother.

 
We lost all of our herbs,last one ' rosemary'died this year. I espeically loved smelling the mints.

Hope we can find some more.

I don't know how you managed to kill mint. I have been trying do do it for years and cannot get rid of the stuff. have even tried chemical herbicides only to have the mess reappear the following year. I made the mistake of planting chocolate mint about 6 years ago and have been regretting it ever since.

Any reputable nursery has them in the spring. You can buy them at Walmart they're usually scraggly and low-quality.
