Commonly Asked Questions

What herbs should not be planted next to each other?

Avoid planting mint with any other herb due to its invasive nature. Similarly, dill should not be planted with lavender, sage, or parsley. Fennel is also best planted alone, as it can inhibit the growth of neighbouring plants.

How do you space herbs in a garden?

Space herbs adequately to ensure they thrive. Mints, rosemary, and sage require about 3-4 feet each, while basils, tarragon, and thyme need around 2 feet. Plan accordingly to avoid overcrowding.

Do herbs like to be crowded?

No, herbs do not thrive when crowded. Ensure each plant has enough space to grow by accurately measuring your garden area and planning the spacing of your herbs accordingly.

Do herbs grow better in pots or ground?

Herbs can thrive in both pots and ground, provided they receive full sun and are in a sheltered position. Planting in pots is ideal for those with limited space, whereas ground planting suits larger gardens.

What not to plant next to rosemary?

Do not plant mint or basil next to rosemary, as they have different growth requirements and may compete for space, water, and nutrients. Rosemary thrives in dry conditions, while mint and basil require more moisture.
