Hidden treasure

While wandering past the herb garden today, musing to myself for the hundredth time that I really should weed it a bit (or should I? Could just call it ground cover for the winter?) I spied some unexpected varieties amongst the various weed species. The joys of self-sowing have meant that there are plenty of new coriander seedlings, a couple of dill seedlings, and plenty of chamomile - even in the segments of the herb garden furthest from where the chamomile originally was. I've weeded out the actual weeds now to give all these new seedlings a bit more of the winter light. Time to start planning what other herbs should join them in spring!
