It was a green and "herbaceous" summer here in sunny Southern OK. Early in the year we had a wonderful assortment of baby lettuces and greens - oak leaf, red oak leaf, butter bib, mustard leaf, chard, black simpson, arugula. All summer up to and including now our basil, oregano, bell peppers, thyme, sage, rue, tarragon, parsley, cilantro, margaram, chives, and rosemary are growing like crazy. We are even having success with some odd things like Vietnamese cilantro and Cuban oregano. We'll make lots of herbed oils and vinegars this fall. I recently planted another crop of lettuce for fall harvesting. Some of the rosemary is growing quite long branches. I like to freeze dry the leaves and use the straightest branches as skewers for grilled meats and veggies. All of our plants are in containers on our deck, so we avoid the pests and most of the bugs. To quote from the great song, Early, "It's been the greenest summer we've had in years".
