At last you can put winter behind you and plant your herbs!
Remember to choose a sunny spot and well-drained soil.
Only a few herbs grow well in shade. These include
- sweet cicely
- wild garlic
- sweet woodruff
- and wood sage.
If you have a damp or poorly drained garden area try some medicinal herbs such as
- meadowsweet
- valerian
- wild iris
- and marshmallow.
Bergamot likes quite a lot of water too.
