Is Your Herb Garden Boring? Then You’ve Come to the Right Place

Introduction

I love growing herbs. They add a touch of class to your cooking, and they’re beautiful to look at—especially when they’re in bloom. But the more I grow them, the more I realize that there are so many different kinds of herbs out there that you can’t even fit them all into one garden! That’s why I built this blog post: it’ll tell you about some different options for indoor herb gardens as well as ideas for how to use them in your own home.

Basil

Basil is a perennial herb that grows throughout the year. It is easy to grow, and it can be used in both cooking and medicine. You can easily find dried basil at grocery stores, but if you want fresh homegrown basil then you are going to have to grow it yourself!

Basil is an excellent choice for an indoor herb garden because it has small leaves that don’t require much space or light. It also has quite a unique flavor which makes it perfect for adding some pizzaz to your cooking or tea!

Cilantro

Cilantro is a herb with a strong, distinctive flavor. It is used in many cuisines, especially those of the Indian subcontinent. Cilantro is the seed of the cilantro plant and it is used as a garnish or spice in many dishes.

Chives

Chives are a perennial herb that belong to the same family as garlic and onions. They grow well in containers, but they can be grown in the ground as well. Chives have a mild onion flavor and look like green grass or a clump of hair, depending on how you plant them!

Lemon Grass

  • Lemon grass is a tropical plant that is used in many Asian cuisines.
  • Lemon grass is a perennial plant that grows best in warm, humid environments.
  • Lemon grass can be grown indoors in pots or you can use lemon grass cuttings from your local farmers’ market or grocery store.

Oregano

If you’re looking to add some variety to your herb garden, oregano is a good choice. Oregano is a perennial herb, which means it will stay alive year-round and continue to grow each year. It’s also known for its use in cooking Italian dishes. Oregano has many health benefits including being a good source of vitamin K, iron, calcium and magnesium.

Mint

Mint is a perennial herb that can be grown indoors. It’s easy to grow and will thrive in the right conditions.

The best place to plant mint is in a pot or container that has drain holes at the bottom. You can also plant it directly into the ground, but make sure you have plenty of space because mint can grow quite large if given enough room!

Mint is great for using fresh or drying out for use later on. You can use it in cooking, baking, teas and even cocktails!

Thyme

There are many herbs that can be grown indoors. Thyme is a perennial herb, which means it will live for several years and continue to produce new leaves and flowers as long as you keep it well-watered, have good sunlight exposure, and don’t let the soil dry out completely. It is easy to grow thyme indoors because it does not require much space or any special care beyond what an indoor plant would need.

Thyme is a good option for those who want to grow their own herbs without needing excessive space or resources (such as water). This herb grows well indoors because its needs are easily met in most homes’ environments; however, if you have access to outdoor space during warmer months then you may want to consider growing thyme outdoors instead so that it receives maximum sunlight exposure!

Rosemary

Rosemary is a perennial herb that is easy to grow and can be used in a variety of dishes. Rosemary is a great herb to grow indoors because it does well with the limited light found in most homes. It’s also great for container gardening, which makes it easy to keep your rosemary fresh even when you’re not able to be as attentive as you might like (perhaps traveling frequently). Finally, if you have a sunny windowsill available, rosemary will appreciate the additional light there.

Sage

Sage is a perennial shrub with broad, green leaves and small lavender flowers. It grows up to 3 feet tall and produces distinctive grey-green foliage. Sage is also known as clary sage or salvia officinalis, though the first name can refer to any member of the Salvia genus.

Sage plants thrive in warm climates and can be grown indoors during cold months if given enough light and water. If you’re looking for an easy way to add some green into your house this winter, try growing some sage!

There are lots of options to add variety to your herb garden

The following herbs are also great to grow indoors: parsley, dill, and cilantro. These herbs can be used in your cooking or as part of a tea blend. Use them in salads or smoothies! They’re also great for decorating dishes or even cocktails!

Other options include mints such as peppermint and spearmint; lavender; rosemary (which has many health benefits); oregano; basil (the most popular herb in the world).

Conclusion

We hope we’ve inspired you to get creative with your indoor herb garden. Just remember that it doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive, just a little bit of research and effort will go a long way!
