I am trying to start a little herb garden for your basic herbs so that when I cook I can get them fresh! . I'm sure you all can reflect on the difference in taste when using fresh herbs vs the packaged stuff. I used to landscape for 5 years but now I'd like to grow my own herbs as I love to cook. I'm hoping you all will be able to share advice with me as to getting started and maintaining the herb garden! Quote \| Reply \| Report

I like how easy they are to grow and how nice they make the garden look. I use them as edging in front of my roses. Now I have to learn how to cook with them! I'm always pinching off parts of my thyme, but most of my herbs I never touch. I used some garlic chives in a salad last night but never cut any at all last year! I'm a NYer too. Are you from the City or upstate? Quote \| Reply \| Report

One of my favorite tricks (that I finally get to do again this year!) is to plant parsley between my tomato's. It improves both of them! Quote \| Reply \| Report
