An easy way to happy herbs

In the mix: Potted herbs

HERBS are a simple way to support everyday wellbeing while making food taste better. Right now you can start tender herbs from seed in a warm propagator on a bright windowsill. You can also buy small pots and keep them indoors for quick picking.

For hardy herbs you could grow young plants on a sheltered sill now, then move them outside when the weather softens. If your space is limited, plan a few larger pots for spring and summer, and start with one or two indoor growers today.
