Herb Plant Information

10.07.16 | Ilona Erwin | 2 Comments

Are you growing herbs or planning to? You might need a little guide to find all my written articles on the topic. (I have over 1000 posts here, and it is high time to organize it for ease in finding just the ones you need, quickly).

LAVENDER

Lavender has been one of my favorites from very early in my gardening career. It became a feature in my garden once I made the Lavender hedge to line the fieldstone walk.

HERBS

I no longer have a special herb garden, but incorporate herbs throughout the different planting beds. Sage, hyssop, and thyme find a place beside the back walk. Within the vegetable gardens is where I grow most of my herbs today.

Considered Easy

Herbs are considered some of the easiest, or at least non-demanding plants to grow. They generally desire full sun and good drainage with average moisture.

About Ilona Erwin

I was a garden blog pioneer, and began writing on this blog in 2003. Before that I had begun a garden website that has been at its own domain since 2006, Ilona's Garden.

I still love writing, gardening, and art after all these years, although travel and grandchildren have become a big part of my life, now.

    I have a square, three tier herb garden right outside the back door, making it easy to grab them for cooking. Some I just grow because they are pretty!
