Spearmint



A kind of heaven.


Tomorrow, I will clear beneath the Dread Hedge, full of dead leaves and some sort of vine and drifted trash. Ready for some spearmint to spread. B at work is moving, and has offered some of hers, with the stern warning that I should pot it. But I have no trouble with it taking over by the hedge on that side of the front. Sounds wonderful, actually.

gz,
But all they will be taking over is dead lawn.

Mouse,
Exactly, seems a fair trade in this case.

Wish we were nearer and I could supply you with plants. I have lots of mints, apple, pineapple and some varigated frilly edged version. Lemon balm is good, too.

RR,
I have some lemon balm in the back, I may transplant it. Thing is, most of what grows so well for you would not make it here, even if we did have a working teleporter.
