I recently read that if you plant mint with other plants it makes the other plants lose their flavor. If you plant different kinds of mint with each other they lose their different flavors also. Just to be on the safe side I took all my mint out of my garden and planted them in separate pot of each different kind.

I apologize. The sweet little plant you are asking about is a scented geranium. My little nursery had no tag in it- I just loved it and picked it up to add to my container pot that greets me when I walk to the veggie garden. <A HREF="http://http://www.mountainvalleygrowers.com/pelargoniums.html" REL="nofollow">Meemshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16341998120938921741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-41460280888620079222009-04-05T01:43:00.000-04:002009-04-05T01:43:00.000-04:00mmmmm on the chocolate mint Meems!

You will be eating from it very soon if you haven't been already. To have a home-grown tomato this early in the season would be bliss.

I'm thinking the garden looks larger in the photos than it is based on some of your responses. It is approx. 213 sq ft of beds not counting the outside perimeter where some of the flowers are planted. I've also planted some veggies in with the flowers in the back yard... just for fun to see how they fare.<BR/><Meemshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16341998120938921741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-81407749664247033752009-03-28T20:49:00.000-04:002009-03-28T20:49:00.000-04:00I am so impressed, Meems.
