Herb garden?

I was thinking of buying dried herbs and thought to myself, why don’t I just grow them?

I am thinking of buying basil, rosemary, thyme, and oregano (if it’s available).

I’m also thinking of planting camomile.

I was cruising Pinterest today and I found these “basil trees :deciduous_tree:” and I was like woah I want to do that.

I’m really excited to have a small herb garden!

Good for you @anon10648258 . It sounds exciting. I bought a few herb plants a couple years back when I was growing vegetables in a garden. I never ended up using them on foods though.

Thanks! I might purchase some marjoram seeds from the internet. Or I will just work on growing one basil tree :deciduous_tree:.

We grow our own herbs during our short growing season. Also winter some over inside, but use them sparingly.

I have a lot of different herbs in my garden (10-15). Basil grows best in a self watering plant pot (it needs a lot of water)

Mentha (peppermint) is a very aggressive herb and can spread itself, so it’s best to grow in a pot. And it can grow in the shady part of the garden.

Most other herbs just need a lot of sun, a lot of them flowers beautifully - especially sage.

Good luck, and just ask if you have any questions.

I wanted to grow spinach but it didnt grow for some reason. I used seeds. We have lots of mint and grape vines to make arabic food. Also edible flowers my mother do flower jam with. Its good.

Mint grows pretty easily.
