I have a small herb garden in raised beds near my front doorway. One side
is up against the sidewalk and there is some space between the other side
and a gravel path (that is a French drain that was put in after the house
was built and my lawnless yard was not draining like it should). I put the
creeping Germander there and it has crept rather modestly, but I think it
looks good most all year round, blooms prettily and hasn't developed any
dead areas like the thymes do. It can take some dampness, which is why I
put it there...it IS an herb, but it doesn't have the benefit of the raised
beds I give the other herbs, so it makes for a nice transition.

Where do you like to use the creeping germander?? I have some that is
finally beginning to creep and I am not sure I like it where it is.
