oregano – Chalet Lang

Ground covers in the rain

I decided to acquire more 4″ pots the fun way, and got a bunch of plant starts – especially groundcovers to try.

I got a couple more rosemaries and an oregano for the herb pots.

Garlic Escape

The second best thing about planting “too much” garlic is an abundance of scapes.

I split them into 4 parts- trimmed and put some in the fridge in water, made basil pesto (basil, salt, pepper, hot peppers, garlic, vinegar, touch of sugar), oregano pesto (“), and salsa (cilantro, hot peppers, salt, pepper, lime juice, a few tomatoes). The salsa is definitely the winner.

P weeded and mowed while I did that- and discovered a treat- salmon berries hiding in the bramble!

Yum.
