Seasonal Advice for Herb Gardens

Spring Refresh

Begin planting hardy herbs like thyme, chives, and oregano. Gently prune perennials to promote fresh growth.

Summer Care

Consistent watering mornings. Mulch to retain moisture. Harvest regularly to encourage bushier growth.

Autumn Harvest

Cut back herbs avoiding stressing the plant. Plant cool-season herbs for late-season harvests.

Winter Prep

Protect potted herbs indoors or with frost cloths. Keep soil slightly moist and rotate plants for light.

Herb Garden Design

Low-maintenance raised beds with wide pathways for comfortable seniors. Fragrant, edible herbs arranged by sun exposure.

Soil & Planting

Use well-draining soil rich in organic matter. Choose perennials for longevity and easy care.

Care Routines

Simple, repetitive tasks: water, prune, harvest. Schedule weekly check-ins to stay on track.
