  • Comment on 4 herbs that will flourish for even novice North State gardeners by Doni Chamberlain
    In reply to Flounders. Good to know about parsley. And I am impressed (jealous) about your tarragon returning after winter. You're correct about it doing best in partial shade. It's delicate. (I can't remember where I bought the Mexican tarragon, but it's STURDY and loves full sun.)
  • Comment on 7th Annual Lavender Harvest: Giving back to the community, sharing a love of flowers, farming, family and fun by Doni Chamberlain
    In reply to Shelly Shively. Glad you liked the story. And you're right that Gary and Rocio are inspirational. I am looking forward to visiting the Lavender Harvest, and can't wait to plant some lavender at my place.
