SAVORY, Summer (Satureia hortensis). 1% ft. Use the 
tender leaves in soups and salads. Annual. 20 cts. each. 
SAVORY, Winter (Satureia montana). 1 ft. We think of 
Savory in the same breath that we do marjoram and 
sage and thyme. It’s sweetly fragrant and every good 
French cook will tell you that it does something to soup 
and meat dishes. The flavor it imparts is a mild one. 
SOUTHERNWOOD (Artemisia Abrotanum). 2 to 3 ft. 
For centuries, Old Man or Lad’s Love, as it is also 
known, has been found in almost every old New England 
garden. It has a refreshing and clean fragrance. 
SPIDERWORT (Tradescantia virginica). 1 ft. For his- 
torical reasons we suggest that you plant this with your 
herb collection. It was one of the favorites in the New 
England gardens in the late seventeenth century. 
SPEARMINT (Mentha spicata). 2 ft. Perhaps the one 
herb that everybody knows is Spearmint. A sprig of 
fresh mint put into the pot when cooking new potatoes 
and peas, adds greatly to their flavor. 
TANSY (Tanacetum vulgare crispum). 3 ft. It is probable 
that Tansy escaped from Governor Endicott’s garden 
and soon took its place in the highways and byways of 
rural New England. The finely-cut foliage resembles 
that of a coarse fern and the great clusters of yellow 
button-like flowers in summer are showy. 
TARRAGON (Artemisia Dracunculus). 3 ft. This herb 
makes us think immediately of Tarragon vinegar. It is 
also used to garnish various dishes made with fish as 
well as to flavor soups and salads. The fresh leaves have 
a flavor not unlike that of anise. We offer the true French 
strain. 35 cts. each; $3.00 per 10. 
THYME (Thymus Serpyllum). 9 in. Thyme is one of those 
universally indispensable, fragrant plants that have 
appealed to peasant and poet alike. Its fragrance every- 
one knows and its subtle flavor adds much to poultry. 
Caraway (T. herba-barona). 6 in. As its botanical name 
suggests, it has long been used in Europe to flavor beef. 
Garden (7. vulgaris). 6 to9 in. There are two kinds of 
T. vulgaris: one is the narrow-leaved French form 
which is most desirable for cooking; the other is the 
broad-leaved English variety. 
Golden (T. Serpyllum aureus). Yellow-green leaves. 
Lemon (T. Serpyllum citriodorus). 6in. Plant it where it 
can be stepped upon easily. 
Shrubby (T. nitidus). 9 in. Shrubby; gray-green foliage. 
White (T. Serpyllum albus).3 in. If givenan ideal location, 
it will clamber over rocks. Moist soil. 
Woolly (7. Serpyllum lanuginosus). 3 in. A gray woolly- 
leaved form which finds its place in the rock-garden. 
WORMWOOD (Artemisia absinthium). 3 ft. A good back- 
ground plant. Disliked by moths. The leaves are used 
to flavor cordials. 
Beach (A. Stelleriana). 1144 ft. Dusty Miller, as it is. 
often called, makes a delightful silver-leaved edging. 
Fringed (A. frigida). 144 ft. It is difficult to keep up 
with the demand for this native Artemisia. Its silver 
foliage creates a pleasing effect. 
Roman (A. pontica). 1 ft. Most of us know it as Old 
Woman or Girl’s Love. It is a delightful companion 
for Old Man. It can be used as an edging plant, but 
however it is used, it belongs in every herb-garden. 
Silver King (A. albula). 3 ft. Everybody who knows the 
value of texture in a perennial border uses Silver King.
