June in the Garden

"June is the luckiest time for weddings. A bridal bouguet should include a sprig of sage to insure domestic peace, good health, and a long life; a sprig of lavender for undying love; jasmine for harmony; a sprig of marjoram, the gypsy herb of love; a sprig of borage for courage----always borage." Linda Ours Rago, The Herbal Almanac

Shall I cut, dry, and save some for the late September marriage celebration? Mais oui!

What herbs are growing in my garden? Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme. Also several varieties of basil, chives, tarragon, and lemon balm.
