Haircut for herbs

I've been refreshing my potted plants. These really needed to be trimmed back. I gave them a good trim and put them on a table so they could dry. Oregano is on the left and lemon thyme on the right.

Wow! That’s a lot! Terrific photo of both of them.

Great shot of your trimmings. I can imagine the lovely smell.

Perfect for a ratatouille !

I can smell them. And you always have it fresh when you need it.

Like my wife does . A store for winter times.
( I even do n`t dare to think about it after some rain.)

I bet your house smelled so good. I love those herbs. We have grown them in our aerogarden, but now we have them outside.

[Wylie]

I bet they are much happier now :)

I see you pay great ATTENTION to your herbs!

I can almost smell them from here

I started thyme many years ago in a 5 gallon bucket. It provides more than I need. Did the Lemon last year and it is doing well too. Love my herbs!! Nice capture!

[Margaret Brown]

Very fragrant trimmings, do you cook with them?

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Sounds tasty! I decided not to do herbs again- it's just easier for me to get fresh from the farmer's market- and I love having the pots full of flowers. These herbs look really tasty!

Very nice

@grammyn Thanks Katy.
@wakelys The oregano is pretty loud actually.
@cocobella You know, I've never made that. Will have to check out that recipe.
@haskar I'm hoping the thyme makes it. I think it may have run its course. I'll baby it. The oregano is going and smelling strong.
@pyrrhula Yes I use a lot of oregano. I hope to use more thyme. @shutterbug49 The oregano is pungent. I also have sage, basil and am trying to get a dill plant to grow. Oh yes. I have rosemary outside in a pot in the garden.
@pusspup Yes. I hope I didn't trim the thyme too much.
@will_wooderson Well...looks can be deceiving.
@kjarn If it smells like oregano, it's mine.
@brillomick Thanks Mickey.
@craftymeg I try to cook with them, but often forget the fresh herbs are around. I do use the dried ones a lot.
@olivetreeann Probably easier in the long run. I do winter them over in the sunroom so try to have them all year round.
@bkbinthecity Thanks.

@randystreat I keep forgetting to mention I like your new profile picture

[Kathy]

@grammyn Thank you. Church photo.

@randystreat very easy to cook and very healthy: only vegetables and herbs…I use to cook it very often, the origines of the ratatouille comes from south of France where I come from ;)
