The herb garden largely survived the winter and was in need of some major pruning. The rosemary had grown to over 3ft tall and the sage and oregano were running wild. After some quick cleanup and the addition of some "shitty" Basil here is what it looked like a little over a week ago.

This patch has started to overgrow again and is encroaching on the Basil thus turning it to shit. The herb garden has also seen the addition of any Cilantro we find popping up around the garden and some Dill that I planted as seed. Not pictured are the Chives which are hiding behind Sage.
But not all is lost for the Basil. I split a basil starter in half and planted it in 2 pots knowing full well how finicky they can be. With much care I am finally at the point where I can start using the leaves without decimating the plant.

So that's the herb garden. Lots more to cover when I get some decent pictures. The rogue lettuce has returned like a weed this year...
