Commonly Asked Questions

How do you make a small outdoor herb garden?

To create a small outdoor herb garden: First, choose a suitable container. Ensure it has drainage holes. Line the bottom with a weed barrier cloth, then fill with quality soil. Plant your herbs, spacing them appropriately, and water thoroughly.

What herbs cannot be planted next to each other?

Avoid planting mint with other herbs, as it can be invasive. Keep dill away from lavender, sage, and parsley. Sage and chives also don't pair well, and it's best to plant fennel separately.

Do herbs grow better in pots or the ground?

Herbs typically thrive in full sun, whether in pots or the ground. Containers are excellent for controlling growth and mobility, while ground planting can accommodate larger spreads. Choose based on available space and desired mobility.

What are the easiest herbs to grow outside?

Chives, basil, mint, and oregano are among the easiest herbs to grow outdoors. They adapt well to various conditions, require minimal care, and provide a continuous harvest.

Do herbs come back every year?

Many herbs, such as sage, oregano, and thyme, are perennials and will return each growing season. They typically expand each year, providing a consistent supply of fresh flavour.
