		<description><![CDATA[I love finding great vintage containers with a past. They have a history, the intrigue of previous owners, time-worn patina, and usually  multiple imperfections. All of which create an incredible charm and uniqueness.
One of my favorite pieces in my garden is this tiny charming cherub statuary, diligently overseeing her thriving succulent planting of echeveria [...]]]></description>

Round and rosette-like, I use my perennial favorite succulent, echeveria, planted at my hen&#8217;s shoulder and back. Similiar to a perfectly shaped fleur-de-lis, is the handsome green, slightly uncommon ice plant relative, Smicrostigma viride. The chartreuse green notched strands, with [...]]]></description>

One of the most beautiful herbs I have ever grown is the ornamental oregano, Kent Beauty, Origanum rotundifolium.
