Getting there at last

Finally, some success!  It doesn't look like much, but after three hard days digging and mixing in good potting soil, moisture granules and perlite, after digging a French drain and putting in paving stones and a pot to hold a rosemary that will be taken in in the winter, today we planted Mom's herbs.  They look pretty pathetic right now (few and far between), but they are planted at the prescribed distances from each other and we hope that they will flourish and soon furnish Mom with both beauty for the eye and savory tastes for the kitchen.
