They're easy to grow indoors or out, and offer instantaneous gratification when used in marinades, various recipes, sauces and soups. Though you may believe you have to get out and prune every day with an herb garden this is not true, but even better you can keep it going all year long by moving your pots inside in the fall. It is often sensible to allow perennial herbs to comprise the bulk of your garden, as these will not die and require replanting at the end of the year. Over and above this, you should consider your personal taste inclinations when choosing herbs to flavor meals. Customize your herb garden to the kind of food you most consistently cook. For example, plant cilantro if you prefer Mexican or Thai food. If you prepare more Italian food, definitely plant basil, oregano, and thyme. You must decide where your herb garden will be placed in order to determine which herbs will mature best. It may be easier to plant right into the earth if you live in a place that has warmer winters and much cooler summers. This makes it so you do not have to worry about making planters. It is also a lovely way to landscape your garden. Are you worried that your area has bad climate that might cause your vegetation to die or become dormant? Try out planters because with their flexibility and practicality allows you to move the herbs indoors at any time.
