Oh! I would love a moon garden, too! That would be so nice and quite peaceful. Hey - maybe the three of us can go together and buy a huge old house with an enormous backyard and each have our own secret gardens.

What would you plant in the Moon Garden, Leah?

Shay, I think I will work on the Healing Garden first with carnation, rosemary, sage and some miniature roses.

I think besides the Native American and Christian beliefs I have, a large part of my soul is Pagan. I love these customs and rituals and want to learn more.

Helen, would I be able to grow lemon balm in a 24" X 4" X6" deep planter, do you think? I have never grown it before. Would it take full sun or should I give it some filtered sun?

Hahaha, yes I think that is an excellent idea Phyllis! I would definitely plant wormwood, lambs ear, and Mugwort (Cronewort for the green witches amongst us:)).

There's a whole list of plants that only bloom at night but I can't remember their names right now - I'd definitely plant whichever of those would grow where my garden is:).

I did a quick internet search and found these two cool sources and they too would grow my first three:)...

Ooohhh, moon flowers are beautiful too.

Phyllis, my husband took charge of the lemon balm and I took charge of the basil. He used a shallow planter on a partially covered deck and it still grew prolifically, but I don't know if that is the best way. It was wonderful to have fresh basil for pesto. I put both the basil and lemon balm in rice and it was delicious.

Ahhh! this is great, Leah! I will study the Moon Garden site and see if I can get some of those seeds. Thank you!

Trish, the lemon balm and basil in rice sounds really good. I love basil to make fresh pesto with. My sister and I are the only ones in the family who like it, so I always try to grow extra to give to her when we visit.
