xan's Savory Walk (formerly Area 1 & 2) garden

Garden Type: Herb | Sun: Partial Sun | Soil: Combination I'm Organic!

This is from an off-the-top-of-my-head idea from one of my journals here: to create a pathway through savory and fragrant plants. Since I seem to be able to grow herbs (or they’re good at growing themselves), I’m putting this in my “problem spot”— it’s got a nice path to the spigot and the sideyard, and is right by the porch so we should get a scented breeze when sitting there. Because this is in the Love and Relationships bagua, I’ll be planting everything in pairs. Area includes the sideyard.
