There's an herb lady at our farmer's market who makes gorgeous containers of mixed herbs. I wouldn't put basil or dill in because they get big. What did you plant? Quote \| Reply \| Report

From what I've read online in different sites and other forums, mints can be invasive. Although I'll be the first one to admit that I love them. Quote \| Reply \| Report

I've never had a problem with growing herbs together in the same container. But scooppc11 was right your're better off growing the mints in a separate container other wise they'll take over. You can't see the oregano and the other rosemary plants in this picture but there' on the right if the sage and rosemary in this container. Attachments: Quote \| Reply \| Report
