Aromatic herbs in April
Growing aromatic herbs
April 10, 2011
Aromatic herbs during April offers small harvests, and requires water and some care.
Dandelion
has new tender leaves, that can be eaten raw during spring.
I sowed some more
chives garlic
(or Nira): it can be reproduced by
division
, but I wanted to try my seeds.
I kept indoor this plant of
capers
during winter, then I repotted it and now it's full of new leaves.
My
hyssop
has two years, and has new tender sprigs. It will become a small bush and will bloom soon.
Wood sorrel
has already started to bloom.
Sage
leaves can be harvested to prepare
Fried Sage
, but I will wait to drie and store them.
It's time to sow basil: this year I'm trying this
lettuce leaf basil
and
licorice basil
for the first time.
I've sowed also an old friend,
cinnamon basil
.
