| Harvesting Herbs For Cooking
|
How do I harvest these herbs: mint, basil, parsley, rosemary, dill and chives? I do not know if I should just tear off leaves or cut off the stalks/stems. I want the basil etc for cooking but I want the plant to keep producing. They are on my patio in pots.

| Purple Flower on a Sage Plant
|
|
I planted a Sage plant last year in the ground. I cut it back and mulched it last year before freezing. Now this year when it came back -- it is doing great, but now it has a purple flower on top. Why is that I never seen this before? It is pretty.

This year my herb garden is doing well. I have a nice amount of peppermint and oregano. I have dried some for tea and cooking spice. However I don't want to let the rest go to waste. Any ideas for dried peppermint recipes, and holiday gifts?

Take sand in small bowls and seed onions, coriander seeds, mustard, ginger, stalks of puthina, place them in different places. The green color will gives us fresh thoughts and we'll get a good atmosphere. Onion plant works as an antiseptic, and we can use them fresh in our daily needs.

| Sage Leaves Turning Yellow
|
|
My sage plant looks fine and is growing nicely but older leaves turn kind of yellow. Is this "normal"? Can these leaves be dried and used for tea?
