Fact sheet: Growing Herbs
Welcome to the rewarding hobby of herb
growing!
There is nothing like chopping up your
own, freshly grown herbs. Stews, salads, scrambled eggs and mashed potatoes take on a new
and tantalizing flavour. You become the creator of exciting dishes by mixing and blending
your own herbs and at the same time cut back on the usage of salt.
There is such a variation of herbs in
foliage, fragrance and flower display, that a whole garden could consist of herbs and your
friends would commend you on your beautiful, ornamental garden.
The question is often asked in our herb
nursery, "How difficult is it to grow herbs?" Herbs are hardy plants. Hardier
than most garden plants. They like a sunny spot, preferably morning sun (in
the warmer parts of Australia), anywhere in the
garden. Like all plants they will amply reward you by a yearly dressing of manure, blood
and bone or mixed fertilizer, in spring.
Herbs if pruned
frequently will make plenty of fresh growth. It is not necessary to have a separate herb
garden. They grow well in your vegetable or ornamental garden.
Herbs make such a display with their
different foliage, colour and flowers, that they compliment any garden. You will also have
the added benefit of the insect repellent properties of herbs.
All the mints, bergamot,
angelica, lemon balm, and chervil dislike hot afternoon sun and should be planted in a
place with morning sun.
Water sparingly in winter
and more frequently in summer. Rosemary, thyme and savory love plenty of sun.
