Quite a few...Now that's what I call enthusiasm! Quite a few of the herbs grow wild here, Meadowsweet you will see along the verges and anywhere where it is damp, it normally starts blooming around May and goes on a long time,both black and white Horehound grows wild here, common Mallow is also here so Marshmallow should do OK,around the conyones de Sil we found masses of wild French lavender growing. We have amaranth growing in the garden,we didn't plant it, it try's to do a take over bid, the hens don't like it but the rabbits eat it.<br />We have always planted according to the moon, we find going by the moon can lower germination time up to four days.<br />We store all our seed in a ziplock bag in the door of the fridge, that seems to work fine, also, parsnips are not the easiest things to get going, we pop the seed in the freezer for a few days, we get 99% germination this way.Renovation in Galiciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12134753603087085719noreply@blogger.com
