As many of you know, I'm back to living with my parents. On the plus side, my mom does a lot of gardening, and we decided we want to plant an herb garden. My mom's tired of the standard fare herbs, so she asked me to help her find some nice rare and exotic herbs to plant. Some of the suggestions I had were hyssop, pontica, and roman chamomile.
There probably won't be any huge yields here, but I'd be more than happy to send some out to you guys. If there're any other suggestions you guys have, let me know. We'll be ordering seeds within the next few weeks.

The fenouil Doux just came in from France, very, very nice stuff.
I have the Spanish anise now too.
The imported Egyptian roman chamomile is almost as floral as my own home grown, nothing like the usual crap we see, nothing like what I had already. The blossoms are huge with large snow white petals that fold over the rock hard yellow center, making them look like cotton balls, the xit is spectacular.

That's a generous offer but I'm at a loss.
Advertising seems so tacky, I hate fliers and I hate being sold to, I don't want to be too good at selling.
Maybe if I just made it like a business card, strictly contact info, it wouldn't be too bad.
I am proud of the amount of work that goes into the herbs, the quality is absolute, I just hate to rub peoples face in it, specially when they are looking at the product they just bought.
I won't be importing anymore Genepi, Speedwell, Melissa or Lemon Balm. What I'm offering in these imported herbs is the best that can be sourced commercialy, but it's still saw dust. I intend to grow more of these to make up for what's out there.
I will be importing more fennel of Provence (doux) more Spanish anise and definitely more of the extra large flower chamomile, all 3 are truly spectacular.

Indeed they are! Spanish Anise is the best. I'd forgo that Turkish common fennel though. Will you have domestic Lemon Balm?

The Turkish grown fennel isn't bad, but I like the Fennel of Provence betterer, both make great sausage.
I have home grown lemon balm.

I once knew a melissa that handled the lemon balm just right to make a great sausage, alas, she then showed me she had an absinthium and the sausage HyssOPPED a CORriaNdER to FENnel.
