This garden is a reincarnation of garden rows tended by a Research employee and was dedicated in her honor at her retirement. The critical reference for plant choice is The Herb Society of America's Encyclopedia by Deni Bown. You will be surprised to find many familiar plants in this garden, as well as many uncommon ones. There are culinary herbs here, although it is not a kitchen garden.
Herbs are for use and delight.
This garden is delightful.
