My original plan for the herb garden, once the hugel beds were in, was to use bricks to make a path between them. However, that hasn’t happened yet, so volunteer plants have been making their way to this patch of ground.
I think I do have enough bricks but overall I feel I would like something a little less solid and static. At the same time, I’d rather not get muddy feet if it rains just before I go out to pick a few leaves. And I’d rather spend time cooking than weeding, which has been my main gardening activity this week (again).
Then I remembered Pinterest! I still haven’t decided what to do but after two hours of browsing I have discovered a useful herb to add to the garden, if nothing else: Sempervivum.
Any other suggestions welcome!

Oregano and thyme are good as ground cover!
I didn’t realise oregano was a ground cover. That’s great news as I was planing to put some of that in, anyway. Thank you, Connie.
Lovely update thank you for sharing have a blessed weekend
Same to you, Linda! I hope the sun shines for you 😊
Hi Helen, that sounds real good, that little plant is lovely looking and grows well I believe once it has established. Have a lovely weekend with not too much work 🙂
Thank you, Agnes – on holiday for a few days 😊.
And thanks for the comment on Sempervivum. I’ve been looking for places to buy it this evening.
Have a lovely weekend yourself.
There is a variety of chamomile that makes fabulous ground cover .. My oregano and thyme both grow up 😃
Chamomile, great! Thank you, Julie 😊.
