I have a hard time growing kale. Some kind of tiny black worms turn the leaves into lace. :) But lemon balm! I bought one tiny plant a few years ago and now it grows everywhere...everywhere! I've never seen anything so invasive. When I mow, the air smells like fresh lemons. I did a post once about lemon balm. The baby quilt is so pretty. It reminds me of a box of candy.

I am still hoping some of my herbs from last year will come back but I'm starting to have my doubts. The fact that they are in a raised bed makes it tough....even the perennial herbs don't like to come back.

It seems like just the other day you were waiting for the weather to get warm enough for planting and now things are already growing! You probably already know, but I want to remind you to be careful with planting your lemon balm. It can become quite invasive if you don't watch it carefully. Your little arbor area is very cute and I like the baby quilt too. Hope you had a happy Easter.Gloriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04696267700699612617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8258071793517912248.post-48440855697599178102017-04-18T19:02:44.157-07:002017-04-18T19:02:44.157-07:00Hi Granny Marigold, Thanks!

There are mitered corners. I think that is what they are called. Is that what you meant? You could probably google mitered corners or if you like I can send you a site how to do them. I think I can find one again. Thanks for visiting and commenting!

I love the pot of flowers on the cute painted chair... did you paint it?<br />The quilt is so pretty but since I don't sew or quilt I don't understand how you got the rounded corners on the black background. Is there an easy way to explain to someone who has no sewing experience?

I love planting certain herbs but most times I just use them in a pot on the deck so I can go out and run my hands through them just to smell them....Rosemary being the best one! Solving that problem since my niece sells essential oils, I ordered Rosemary yesterday! Loving that your stuff is coming up so pretty. I have some lemon sage (smells like lemon Pledge)....I have had it here at this house 25 yrs and it just keeps coming back.
