When looking at the design my first consideration is always to ask why and what am I doing this for. a simple question but necessary as we often forget why we are thinking Herb Garden Design.
Most of us will be looking at our garden and thinking we could put some herbs in there, but think what do we want to use them for? What herbs do we use in our cooking and will we get some benefit from growing them here.
No point using up our garden space on a Herb Garden if we are not going to use the herbs, I do realise that a herb garden can in itself look quite stunning and also have some magnificent flowers and fragrances but the point is to use the herb in some practical fashion, mostly cooking but perhaps medicinal.
Once we know what kind of herbs we use in our cooking and want in our garden we need to find out if they will grow in our climate.
Local Garden centres will normally only stock those varieties of herbs which grow in the local area so this is an added safeguard to ensure your project is not a disaster by planting herbs that will not grow.
A practical herb garden design will provide the right amount of the right herbs for you in a short period of time and will provide growth for years to come.
