Fieldsof_flowers's blog: Herb Garden

Posted on Jan 16, 2022 3:09 PM

Well, this is going to be my first time doing an herb garden…and I must say, I'm pretty nervous 😬 my gardening area is all cleaned up and ready to go. It had been a mess of weeds and rocks before I weeded and tilled the soil, but now it looks so much better. The herbs I picked are ones that can be used in tea and as natural healers. I also added a few that can be cooked with.
I think the hardest part about doing my garden is having to worry about all the critters eating my plants. I find that sometimes plants say 'deer-resistant'…and then the next thing I know my plant is chowed down to a stub by greedy deer.
So guess what? I'm putting up some strong chicken wire (or something of the sort) so that those voracious critters can't eat my plants. I'm all good with pollinators though! Here's the long list of herbs I'm hoping to plant:
1. Basil
2. Dill
3. Sage
4. Chives
5. Thyme
6. Feverfew
7. Sunset hyssop
8. Bee balm
9. Lemon balm
10. Rugosa rose
11. Roman chamomile
12. Alpine strawberries

So wish me luck, everyone! Because even if I fail, at least I can learn from my mistakes. 😉
