What's that growing in the garden?

What does Kangaroo Paw, Lamb's Ear and Lion's Tail all have in common? All three are unique plants growing in the garden at Kidspace.

Along with these fun feeling animal-named plants, the Kidspace Herb Garden is full of surprising shrubbery. Cilantro, which is often used in Mexican dishes, is growing three feet tall next to a bed of mint and rosemary. A favorite is the bushy pineapple sage plant, which, just as its name suggests, has soft, fuzzy leaves that smell surprisingly like fresh pineapple!

Wander further and you'll come across a coconut-scented geranium, French lavender, aloe vera, ginger, peppermint, stevia and more. Check it out while the weather's warm!
