But peppermint tastes better! Sweet woodruff (not sure about zone 3) is also nice. There are some cute dwarf iris too, and Siberian iris is tough. Mary
Oh yes! Mint! They don't really eat it, and its super hardy...especially nice that they are seeming to help keep it contained and well aerated
In my little head, I also think herbs like mint, rosemary, sage, etc...help deter pests in summer; we had a horrible gnat infestation this year, and I was dousing everyone with vanilla in the coop, but the free rangers didn't seem bothered by them... They were always dust bathing in the herb bed. Since the bugs are gone, they have stopped... Got me thinking to never underestimate the power of a smelly herb
