One exception, in our yard, is our rosemary TREE, ok, really it is a bush, but it could pass for a small tree. You can’t kill that stuff which is great!<\/p>\n

For other herbs, I’m wondering how well this little item would work?<\/p>\n

The description claims it will extend the life for up to 3 weeks, while “looking good” in the frig. (do I really care about how good it looks if it works?)<\/p>\n

Buy it from Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n

One other cool product, very similar to the Herb Savor, that I found locally and use all the time is “Gourmet Garden Herb Blend.” (http:\/\/gourmetgarden.com<\/a>) We buy it locally at Super 1 Foods. It lasts up to 3 months and tastes pretty darn good.<\/p>\n

Look for it at your local market, I bet you’ll like it as much as I do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
