I not only enjoy growing plants that I can eat, but I also want them to look great. I’ve lately been able to accomplish both—by planting culinary herbs with ornamental attributes. Sure, the originals still make it into my lineup for their hallmark flavor, but fun, funky versions of common herbs add a nice ornamental and tasty kick to the mix. Their good looks work well in containers, beds, and borders, mingling with other edibles or with plants that are there purely for show.
