The NC Botanical Garden in Chapel Hill, NC has an herb garden I enjoy visiting.
The cat above has been around the past three times I've visited the NC botanical garden and he tends to hang out in or near the herb garden.
The herb garden is divided into sections with all different types of herbs including medicinal and poisonous plants as well as culinary and industrial herbs. There is also a Child's Garden with activities for the young ones.
These photographs were taken last year during the growing season when everything was still green.

The cat enjoys the aromas! I would bet there is catnip somewhere, no doubt.
Great shots, Carver! I, too, was chuckling at the cat and suspected he/she had caught a whiff of catnip! Thanks for sharing and have a great week!
I've been to botanical gardens during college and had always enjoyed the experience. Is this garden close to where you live?
Thank you so sharing the beautiful pictures. Have a great week!
Carver this is a beautiful herb garden. The cat is probably intrigued and loves all the scents especially catnip. The photos are excellent. I have a small herb garden and use many of my herbs every day. I love the history and mystic behind herbs (and I am not a mystic person!)
What a gorgeous place. Must be very fragrant, too.
A very beautiful place. Excellent photos.
Nice remembrances of growing seasons past. Soon it will be the NEW growing season. ;-)
What a wonderful little sanctuary. I often think I should do this. Must be so rewarding and tasty.
Beautiful herb gardens. Maybe the cat belongs to the gardner. If there's catnip, I doubt he'd wander very far away.
What a cool place! Can you take home free samples? I bet it smaells heavenly there!!! Great contribution for MyWorld.
You have a willing model who follows you around! Cute! I enjoy visiting gardens a such, I get to see every kind, well almost all, of plants...and photos too! Enjoy the week!
What lovely lush gardens to wander through. Can't say as I blame the cat for hanging around. Great captures. I think I smelled lavendar somewhere.
I love to visit herb gardens the smell of the herbs are good,you have taken some lovely pictures. Enjoy your week!
Whoa! I'm growing some herbs too in my backyard. Drooling :)
That looks like a fun place to be. Do you read all the name plates?
A garden just dedicated to herbs? There must be many varieties for sure. Beautiful shots!
those are indeed very beautiful places!

I just love herb gardens..and this one was so special with the Culinary Cat!
KK
A good place for educational tours for the young ones. Teaching them about herbs and planting them :)
Maybe the kitty cat loves the catnip.
I'm thinking there might be some Catnip in that bed! Beautiful sharp and colour rich pictures you captured. It looks so relaxing there.
Love the herb impersonation on the bricks!
