My Herb Garden

[easyrider]

Thought I would give a herb garden a go...Anyone here grown some herbs?

I've' got Mint, Chives, Coriander,Basil,Rosemary,Thyme,Parsley and a bit of space at the front left over for something else...any suggestions?

Next up will be the vegetable patch for juicing my own using this bad boy

I'd plant the mint separately or it will take over the whole patch. It spreads like wild fire.

Put the mint in but in a pot it's a wicked weed

Nice, herb gardens are great and save so much money, as you buy fresh for like £1 then use a few leaves.

Herb gardens are very worthwhile.

Buy a small Bay tree in a standard form then it'll add height, I would have put it at the back

looks great

No it's a character from Game of Thrones, Laurus nobilis of the plant family Lauraceae.

yeah as said above definitely move the mint to a pot, it spreads like wild fire

and you could try sage, tarragon, dill, oregano

would recommend samphire as well, but you have to grow it in a pot, due to having to water it with salty water
