  2. What great pictures Dawn. thanks so much for posting the herb spiral - it was really useful. for some reason I found it hard to get my head round the concept, but your pictures show exactly how I need to go about it. I am planning to have a medicinal herb spiral in the garden and keep the culinary ones I use most at the side door. Reayy enjoyed your holiday pictures - looks like you had a great time. Welcome back xxx
