It’s Herb Time

It’s Herb Time

Now that June has arrived, it’s warm enough to have all herbs planted. Anyone can grow herbs and have fun doing it! Herbs are very container friendly if you don’t have any ground space. Mix varieties for a pleasing look or plant single varieties of your favorites. Generally, herbs should receive a minimum of 4 hours sun a day. Choose a premixed potting mix for containers and as always stay away from small pots as they dry out too quickly in summer heat. Use a 12 inch minimum diameter pot. Herbs are not heavy feeders so feed with mild, organic fertilizers only. Too much fertilizer can affect the oils in the foliage altering the flavour. Many herbs benefit from being gently harvested regularly so snip away often as the growth allows. Every year, growers are coming out with new variations of old favorites (eg. oregano scented lavender new for 2012) so take time to browse through our huge selection.
