HERBS

These are 3 of the herbs bought from Australia.

The 1st two herbs are Tanacetum vulgare 'Isla Gold' (common name: Gold Leaf Tansy) and Tanacetum ptarmiciflorum 'Silver Feather' while the 3rd is the Artemisia vulgaris 'Oriental Limelight' (common name: Variegated Mugwort). All are from the Asteraceae (Compositae) Family.

I am not one to be thrilled by culinary or medicinal herbs but these ones are delicately beautiful.
