Healthy Herbs for Health

The medicinal herbs I obtained from Brooke and Chris Phillips, the plant passionate people at New Earth Nursery, are still strong and blooming even in these colder months. Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia), Rosemary (Salvia rosmarinus), Yarrow (Achillea millifolium), Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica), Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis), and three species of mint, Chocolate, Apple, and Peppermint (Mentha xpiperita. I am bringing them inside to propagate for Spring and enjoy them through the Winter!
