Is there any reason not to plant herbs between roses? It would be
convenient, since the Rose path is right outside the kitchen door.

I have checked several "complementary" sites and none of them seem to
object,
but wanted to get this NGs reaction.

Herbs a Sage, Basil, Parsley, Oregano.

Note that an old Rosemary bush has been in the Rose path for years w/o
any
perceptible problems.

(I do hope the new "from" address will placate my critics.)

Come, come, child, adversity builds character.

Thyme is the most obviously absent choice that you have.

Then you could hum "Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, and Thyme".
What? What's that moaning I hear? Humph.

Have you seen that BBC mystery series "Rosemary and Thyme"?
It's about a couple of lady gardeners who dig up stiffs (if I can say
that) on a regular basis than that Fletcher lady. Good show if your not
too demanding.

But if companion planting is what you're looking for, garlic and onions
are the herbs for you. I mean, herbs are nice but without garlic and
onions there isn't a "real" meal.

You know, you really can't have a placated critic you know. They'd be
out of work.

Hmmmm. You do seem kinda familiar.

Tell you what, I'll give ya 3 steps toward the door ;O)
