About The Herb Garden
A well-tended herb bed is one of the quietest pleasures a garden can offer, brush a sprig of rosemary and the scent follows you indoors for hours. Many of these plants have been grown beside kitchen doors for centuries, valued as much for flavor and fragrance as for the ease of a quick handful before supper. From the bold warmth of sage to the cool bite of mint, the herb garden is a world of contrasts packed into just a few square feet of sun-warmed soil.
