 I hope you enjoy my little web site. I love to herb garden and I want to share this with you. I’m not a writer and I am not real sure about my web site making abilities but I am learning. Thanks for hanging in here with me.

 A lot of people who love to cook with herbs use whatever little place they have in their home to cultivate their own herb garden. Having a small herb garden at home can be very helpful especially when you want to get some fresh herbs whenever you want. What is more interesting about having your own small herb garden is that you can be sure that your herbs are fresh and chemical free!

Setting Up An Herb Garden In Your Terrace

 If you happen to live in an apartment with a small terrace, you can set up a small herb garden without much trouble. The key here is to use some pots and some iron racks. Fill the pots with garden soil and put the pots in the rack. Make sure that your iron racks are sturdy to avoid accidents. Do not put pots on the ledge of your terrace. There is always a danger of the wind blowing off your pots and hitting some passersby below. Just stay on the safe size, try not to stack pots beyond the level of he railings of your terrace.

Setting Up An Herb Garden In Your Backyard

 If you are one of those lucky people who have a small space in your backyard for gardening, it would be a good idea to allocate a space in your backyard for planting herbs. A nice corner of the yard where your plants will be least disturbed would be ideal for your herb garden. You may also put a fence around your herb garden to make sure that people and pets will not accidentally step on your plants. To get the soil ready for planting, use your garden tools to till it. If you are not sure how to prepare your garden plots for planting, it would be a good idea for you to consult some gardening books and magazines just to be sure.

What To Plant In Your Herb Garden

 There are many types of herbs that you can plant in your herb garden. You may plant basil, dill, oregano, bay, angelica, rue, mint, thyme, rosemary, sage, parsley and marjoram. You may plant just a few of your favorite kinds so that you will have a variety of herbs to choose from when cooking. Since most of these plants are not really hard to grow, even if you are a very busy person who only has little time to spare in your garden, you will not really have a hard time making these plants thrive in your herb garden. Just make sure that you water your plants everyday so that they will not welt and die.
