Rosemary is used in small quantities as a flavoring in soups and stews, with vegetables such as peas and spinach or meats such as roast lamb, pork and foul, and with sweet dishes such as biscuits cakes, jams and jellies. They can be used fresh or dried. The leaves have a tough texture and so should either be used very finely chopped, or in sprigs that can be removed after cooking. A fragrant tea is made from the fresh or dried leaves. It is said to be especially nice when mixed with tansy. Try steeping rosemary leaves for a soothing bath water. Rosemary is antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, stimulant and stomachic. Attractive for hedging or woodland edging. Repels insects from neighboring plants. Branches or sachets of the leaves are often placed in clothes cupboards to keep moths away. Woody perennial, evergreen shrub growing to 2–4’ (1.5 m) tall and wide.

It is native to warm-temperate western and southwestern Eurasia and the Mediterranean region. Oregano is related to the herb marjoram, sometimes being referred to as wild marjoram. It has an aromatic, warm and slightly bitter taste, which can vary in intensity. Good quality oregano may be strong enough almost to numb the tongue, but the cultivars adapted to colder climates often have a lesser flavor. Factors such as climate, seasons and soil composition may affect the aromatic oils present, and this effect may be greater than the differences between the various species of plants.

It is used, particularly in France, to season poultry, seafood, young spring vegetables such as carrots, soups and sauces. Chervil's flowers are also edible, also used as micro greens and to garnish salads. Flavor has a faint taste of licorice or anise. Chervil is one of the four traditional French fines herbs, along with tarragon, chives, and parsley, which are essential to French cooking. Unlike the more pungent, robust herbs, thyme, rosemary, etc., which can take prolonged cooking, the fines herbs are added at the last minute, to salads, omelets and soups. It is a digestive aid and used as a 'spring tonic' for cleansing the liver and kidney. Bruised leaves are used as a poultice for slow-healing wounds and a warm poultice is applied to painful joints. Sometimes used as a bait for slugs. Also known as garden chervil to distinguish it from similar plants also called chervil or French parsley.

It is not as strongly aromatic and flavorsome as its French cousin, but it produces many more leaves from early spring onwards that are mild and good in salads and cooked food.

Basil oils have potent antioxidant, antiviral, and antimicrobial properties.","brand":"RESTORATION SEEDS","offers":[{"title":"200 Seeds","offer_id":6037009006631,"sku":"10123","price":3.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2000 Seeds","offer_id":6037009039399,"sku":"15355","price":15.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0129\/8922\/products\/Thai_Basil.jpg?v=1512527585"},{"product_id":"broadleaf-common-sage","title":"Broadleaf common sage","description":"\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/restorationseeds.mom\/pages\/table-menu4\"\u003eSalvia officinalis\u003c\/a\u003e##\n\u003cdiv class=\"how-to-grow-trigger how-to-grow-title\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"label\"\u003eHOW TO GROW COMMON SAGE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"icon-down-arrow\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"how-to-grow-content\"\u003eStart indoors 6–8 weeks before last frost.

With their delicate flavor, they are quite versatile and will add nutrition to any meal, but will shine in dishes with gentle flavors or textures.Sculpit will flower in its first season grown from seed, at about 100 days. This low growing graceful plant has the most whimsical flowers that look like little bonnets. They are beautiful in the garden and a nice addition to cut flower arrangements. The flowers give way to beautiful tear drop shaped seed pods that can be used in dried arrangements.Sculpit can be grown as a perennial in zones 7+, or as an annual in colder zones with great results either way. After flowering, it will likely re-seed and volunteer in your garden.For such a gentle plant, Sculpit does surprisingly well in hot weather, which perhaps is not so surprising given its Mediterranean origin! As a perennial, I was also surprised that Sculpit can hold a garden border well, with regards to weeds and grass. After it grows upright and flowers it tends to flop over and shade out the soil around its base. Nonetheless, Sculpit is not aggressive and plays well with other plants in your garden and grows especially well bordering pathways and larger perennials.
