Herbs, Day 1

Last year we focused on vegetables but, given the uncertain future of the grange, this year we're concentrating on smaller projects, like these herbs. Planted in this container are rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis), oregano (Origanum vulgare?), and woolly thyme (Thymus psuedolanuginosus). This type of thyme isn't edible but should fill in (and hopefully not crowd out) between the other herbs. All of the herbs are perennial, so I just might be able to keep them going until next year if they overwinter indoors. Here's a good link to a herb page maintained by NC State.
