Hello All!

It's been a while since I've posted anything of interest.  Well, here is
a list of all lists:  The Common names of herbs, with thier scientific
names.  I am a very exacting gardener.  I like to know exactly what
plant I am growing, and it bothers me to no end when I find plants
labeled with their common names only.  I hope this list will help you
out at the garden nursery, and when mail ordering.
